Petit, T. 2007 - 29" Sev. 7”  I love the shadowy irregular patterned watermark in this flower which always reminds me of Batman’s image beaming up against the night sky. The very large clear purple flowers have a heavy substance and open flat. At the center of the flower is a green throat. The wide petalled flowers are nicely ruffled, carrying a gold edge. Unique and different.

Murphy 2011 - 16” EE 6” Dormant diploid Unusual Form Cascade -  This plant starts blooming before all daylilies except three in our garden, and is in full bloom when Stella starts. It is a pink and cream bitone cascade with green throat.  Note, this is a large flower, not your more typical small extra early. It is nocturnal, opening at midnight and closing around 7pm the next day. Gorgeous blue green foliage, 3 branches, 18 buds. Pollen fertile. Out of PINK RAIN DANCE by unknown.   Donated by Jim Murphy.

Petit, T. 2009 - 28" Sev. 5.5"  These ivory flowers have a very dramatic chevron applique that extends far out onto the petal self.  Outside the applique is a lavender violet patterned eye. The eye is surrounded by a dark purple mascara band that streaks inward.  The pattern eye is mimicked on the sepals and continues as a double purple and violet picotee around the petal edges.  The picotee edge is surrounded by a third bubbly gold wire edge. Striking and dramatic.

McClarren, T 2000 - 26" DIP Dor Mid 6" - Pink cream with rose eye and ruffled edge.  Donated by Roma Radford.

Petit - SPRING 2009 - 24" Mid TET Sev.  6”  - Like the beautiful golden sunsets of Captiva Island, this flower is a bright beacon in the garden.  The flower color is a glowing coral gold, with hints of pink and orange.  The petal edges are very ruffled and crimped with a sparkling gold filagree.  The gold edges continue around the petaloids as well. The gold, glittering edges all over the flower, combined with the very bright flower color, produces a glittering image of a molten sunset.

Carpenter, J. 2009 – 23” Mid EV 5” RE – The heritage of this cultivar is easily identified by the patterned eye with its etchings on both petals and sepals. TEXAS KALEIDOSCOPE is very powerful for passing that trait to its seedlings. COLORFUL ETCHINGS has a buff yellow-crème base color with beautifully etched eyes that appear on both the petals and sepals. The eye color is a blend of both lavender and wine color with a deeper wine color etching around petals and sepals. The deeper etched edge of the eye on the petals is accented with deeper fine lines of wine color that radiate downward into the beautiful green throat. COLORFUL ETCHINGS has a deeper wine edging with some additional lavender edging with it that extends about half way out on the petals. Repeating scapes have two-way branching with fifteen buds. Pollen fertile and pod difficult.

Petit 2009 - 27" Mid Sev. 6.5 - 7" DOUBLE -  Coronation Dream is by far an extremely sophisticated and commanding DOUBLE flower. The blooms are a soft baby ribbon pink, with both the petals and sepals surrounded by a pronounced gold edge.  The flowers are extremely large, especially for a double flower.  Both consistently and fully double, and are on tall, very sturdy scapes, a very powerful display of massive pom-pom blooms. 

Stamile 2008 - 28" TET EMid Ev. 6” RE - a beautifully formed bright rose pink with a large watermark and gold edge. Bright clear color on tall well branched scapes, color that is so bright and so clear that it radiates across the garden. Fertile both ways and a great parent for both white edges and gold edges.

Carpenter J. 2008 - 27” DIP Mid 6.5-Ev RE - flat-faced, lavender self with a wonderful stenciled eye above green throat, but there's much more to it than that simple little description. Take a look at the pictures.  The flower is consistently good, and very fertile both ways.

Smith. F 2006 - 28" TET SEv 5.5" DANCING RAINBOW is a beautiful combination of mauve and pink with a delightful bluish-patterned eye and matching edge. Fertile both ways.

Roberts, N.  1995 - 38" EM SEv DIP 8" RE - Greenish pink diamond dusted UF; crispate/spatulate.

Kirchhoff 2004 - 28" Mid Tet EV 5.5" RE - Blend of carrot, peach, rose rouge, with yellow to green throat.  DOUBLE.

Murphy 2011 - 45” DIP Dor Mid 6" - Very eye-catching and different!  Cream to light tan in the morning, with a light purple jagged eye pattern. Tiny purple edge on the petals, chartreuse throat, and sunfast to 100F. On hot days it turns cream. 3 branches plus terminal, and about 27 buds. Vigorous, fertile. Out of GREY WITCH by a Jack Carpenter patterned seedling. Excellent parent for unusual patterned kids.

Stamile, P 2006 - 25” ERe. SEv 5.5" Orchid cream with a black violet eye and edge.   Prolific bloomer and increaser.

Smith, F. 2006 - 26" EM Dor TET 6" RE - Dark carmine rose flower with large cartreuse eye and edge.

Carpenter 1994 - 22" DIP Ev EMid 5.5" - Cream gold with dark mahogany eyezone above green throat.

Shooter 2005 - DIP SEv EMid DBL 5" - bronze blush above olive green to yellow throat.

Murphy, 2010 - 39”  MLa  7”  dormant diploid ext.fr.  3 branches, 23 buds. - Black purple with a black band, chartreuse throat, and ruffled edges;  diamond dusted.  Unsually sunfast for a dark color and a sea of blooms in the late season. Fertile. (Don’t Know Jack x Chief Black Hand)  The only cultivar with this parentage, and an excellent parent. Hard Dormant.

Petit, T. 2009 - 27" Mid Sev. 7"  These flowers are warm coral pink doubles with orange and rose highlights.  At the center of the flower is a darker eye, which is present on both the petals and petaloids.  The darker eye also continues along the petals and petaloids as a dark picotee.  Surrounding the picotee edge is a second gold edge, which is typically bubbly, with hooks and knobs.  The petals and petaloids are also very ruffled and crimped.  The flowers appear atop strong, nicely branched scapes.  The overall effect is very showy.

Stamile, P. 2009 - 37" TET EM Dor 5.75” RE - WOW, What a flower!!  Basically pink with a violet rose eye and double edges of both violet and rose. It is the eye, though, with its myriad breaks in color forming designer patterns of intriguing complexity. The eye of GET JIGGY is never the same. While the eye can be occasionally solid it is generally broken into layers. I have seen as many as 9 bands of alternating color (the image shows 7 bands). The lighter bands occasionally take on metallic characteristics. Unlike most patterned eyes the complexity of the eye seems to be independent of the temperature, with seedlings showing the breaking eye. Fertile both ways.

Petit, T. 2009 - 25" Mid Sev. 6" - delicate clear medium lavender pink.  The petals are ruffled and surrounded by a crimped gold edge.  The ruffled gold edges also decorate and highlight the petaloids, which makes the flower glow.  The flowers of Goddess Divine provide a soft, peaceful spot in the garden.  Reminiscent of a prom dress, these lovely pink flowers sparkle in the sunlight.

Roberts, N. 2003 - 44" DIP Mid SEv 8" RE UFO - Raspberry with red eye above green throat.

Petit 2008 - Sev. 7-8” fl. 30” sc. M 25-30 buds. These monster-size flowers make other gold edged lavenders look like miniatures.  The color varies between a dark lavender and light purple, accented by a deep green throat surrounded by a lighter watermark.  The gold edge is deeply ruffled, and the flowers are presented on tall, well branched scapes.  A great garden show-piece and an important breeder for size in the purple to lavender lines.

Reed, M. 1994 - 40" DIP Mid Dor 6" RE - Deep dark purple with velvety black pencil mark above yellow to green throat.

Salter, EH 1987 - 18" DIP EMid Ev 3" - Yellow with washed lavender purple eyezone and green throat.
