| *SEPARATE REALITY -- (Outer Fringes
x John Kinnebrew) Sev. 5.5” fl. 25” sc. M. The consistently
double, typically formal hose in hose blooms of Separate Reality are a
coral orange with a pink overlay. The layers of petals stack on top
of each other, with each layer reaching farther out to funnel in a 3 dimensional
manner rather than laying flat on top of each other. The flowers
also have retained their stamens. The blooms of Separate Reality
are truly different from other doubles in that they contain true extra
petals, not just converted stamens. Sometimes the stamens also convert
to petaloids, giving the blooms as many as 15 petals/petaloids. A
very
important hybridizing break, and one of my most used double parents because its formal appearance allows daylilies to resemble roses or camellias. |
