Some seedlings from Thursday and Friday

4 years ago

Here are some seedlings blooming today. Many of these have just started flowering. You will see a common element in many of them--Ruffled Strawberry Parfait, which has been extensively used in our late program.

This is the first flower on this one. It is Deadliest Catch X (Chomp X Ruffled Strawberry Parfait).

These two siblings are from Raggedy Man X Sonoran Desert Rose.

This is Ruffled Strawberry Parfait X Extreme Tangerine.

These two siblings are from Ruffled Strawberry Parfait X Spacecoast Alpha Wolf.

This is a rebloom scape on (Cherry Pie a la Mode X Stellar Stitchery) X Cherry Pie a la Mode.

We are really liking this seedling--Carrots Forever X Susan Ruoff.

This is from Bob's fulva progam--((Fulva Korean X Transylvanian Tango) X Crimson Stories).

That's all for today.

Nancy, I really like the first of the Ruffled Strawberry Parfait X Spacecoast Alpha Wolf. Very pretty. I'm not much on teeth so it the winner to me. Its sibling is nice and a great color to me except the teeth. Bob's fulva is quite interesting.

Great group of very impressive seedlings! I love the first one! What a great edge, and I like the yellow on the sepals. What color would you say the petals are? The second Ruffled Strawberry Parfait X Spacecoast Alpha Wolf is a wow - great color and super big toothy edge! Both Raggedy Man X Sonoran Desert Rose seedling look good, and I'm amazed that last one comes fron a fulva program. Congrats on all of those!

Alpha Wolf seems to make some fierce teeth. Looks like good saturated color too. The Deadliest Catch seedling seems the most saturated. Impressive indeed. How are the heights on these two seedlings?

Congrats to Bob, that seedling is lovely!

I like both of the Spacecoast Alpha seedlings. The Spacecoast seedling with the teeth may be the first toothy daylily I really love, nice work!

It is also great to see that these seedlings are late bloomers….a plus!

Oh my, you have some very toothy blooms and lots of vibrant color. I like both of the Ruffled Strawberry Parfait X Spacecoast Alpha Wolf kids. How exciting to see how the same cross can produce two totally different forms and color.

Debra, the color on the Deadliest Catch seedling is a rosy red.

Mantis, the Ruffled Strawberry Parfait seedlings are pretty tall--maybe 40 inches, but the Deadliest Catch seedling is much shorter--maybe about 28 inches.

Ruffled Strawberry Parfait makes great children. Great bunch of seedlings. I don't know how you could not register them, much less think about culling!

How nice this groups of seedlings is! I particularly like the first one, and the second Ruffled Strawberry Parfait X Spacecoast Alpha Wolf.
. I also like Bob's fulva seedling. And, Carrots Forever X Susan Ruoff. is a truly pretty one too. There isn't a stinker in the entire group.
