The blurb on it said it consistently made patterns on it's crosses; it's why I was so keen on it.

Off the subject, but I just tried to change my user profile to include (zone 5a) - Houzz wouldn't let me do it!

It's showing your zone now. It has a fabulous pattern, but the petal color is quite different from Gossard's sales photo. Good luck with your hybridizing of patterns. It will be fun to see what you get from it.

Debra

Debra - yes, the color isn't what the sales photo shows. In truth, I prefer what I'm seeing in my garden! We'll see how that light lemon color does when crossed with purples - might get muddy at first cross, but some discussion on the Daylily Hybridizing page at FB, indicated that this could be corrected in future crosses. I'm really excited about working with it!

Oh, and where are you seeing my zone? That 10 after the name "samhain" (one of my black cats, BTW) is the year she was born - my zone is 5a. It's still at my profile page, I know that, just not here on the threads.

Alex

Yes it is . Your "moniker" says samhain10(5a-MI) . Pretty plant . I love the color . I added Get Jiggy for the same reason but didn't get to see much patterning in it this season . Hopefully next it will do more .

Heather - really? How come I can't see it? And what about everyone else? Will they have to change their name to reflect the zone? I used to see it on Debra's and Nancy's (I'm assuming this is Nancy 6b up there, but I'm not seeing it here. Why aren't I seeing it? Geez, Houzz.

Oh, and I bet Get Jiggy will be a good one; I've looked at that one on here - oh, yeah!

That is a really pretty one.

kay

Very nice bloom! I like the pattern as well.

Lori

Very nice, Alex.

When I put my zone in, I just did 6b; I didn't use the word zone.

Brad - that's what I tried initially, but when it kicked it back at me, I tried adding the word "zone". No dice. Will go give it another try this morning.

Ah! It worked that time! :)

now your moniker says samhain10-5a(5a-MI)

Very pretty bloom Alex. It looks very similar to the pic on Heavenly Gardens. Is it a tetra or dip? I believe Gossard has 2 pics on his site.

Julia - it's a dip.

Like the flower. I live about 30 miles from Jamie. Do you think I get to his garden often? Noooo!

30 miles?! That's just a hop, skip and a jump! But I understand. I live within a relatively short distance of so many beautiful spots, and rarely leave my property.

Same here. Too much to do at home to go visiting .

I realize today I had gotten Pattern Maker confused with Pattern Breaker. Gossard has has so many daylilies now with similar names. Yours actually does look similar to Gossard's photo.

Debra

Yes, Pattern Breaker is a later, I believe, and superior plant, but was more than I could justify paying at the time. But I'm happy with Pattern Maker, which has been consistent with each bloom.
