Debra,

I am going to move both seedlings out of the seedling area, because it is not the greatest area. I will move them to a better spot and see what happens. I agree, Great White is a great plant with great foliage and at least 3 way branching, but it is slow to increase. I will be curious to see how this seedling increases.

David

Very nice seedlings, David -- and welcome to ATP!

Gale, I like your red. It's color is clear.

Fred, that poly is gorgeous. Does it have a high %?

David - Some nice seedling blooms! I have been doing a lot of searching lately on the ATP Daylily Database for rust resistant cultivars. YOUR seedling has one good parent for rust resistance! J.T. Davis exhibits rust resistance. On the other hand, Great White shows a 3.8 susceptibility to rust. That good foliage might be coming from JT.

Cindy and Debra - I like every one of each of yours above! Wow! Quite the show!

Fred - Another registration worthy seedling. I love the color contrasts in that bloom!!!

Thanks Becky

A few seedlings today. This first one I have lost the tag on and I have misplaced my garden maps so not sure of the cross.
UNKNOWN X UNKNOWN a diploid



CRITIC'S CHOICE X ED BROWN




PASTEL CLASSIC X LIGHTHOUSE FREE GIFT




GALAXY EXPLOSION X REBEKAH'S GOTHIC SPIDER and also the pic of the scape and buds







This one was marked ED BROWN X FORESTLAKE RAGAMUFFIN but the color of the flower surprises me. I would not have expected this color so I am wondering if I marked it wrong.

Great looking seedlings I had 4 FFO on seedlings today. I had family over, so didn't take any stats.



Another tink seedling, I can see some bluishness in the eye.

Very nice!!!

I will be keeping this bloom in the fridge for a couple of days.

Very nice, Ashton!!!

Cindy - I couldn't resist, I just had to do a pedigree chart on your "ED BROWN X FORESTLAKE RAGAMUFFIN" seedling. Since there are some unknown genes further back, it's hard to say positively whether or not your seedling is marked correctly, but ...
looking at the known genetics .... I'd have to say that you may have mislabeled that beauty!

Thanks Becky. I figured it must not be marked right. Going to see if I can find out what exactly the cross is if I only can find my maps on my cluttered desk.

That's very strange, Ashton -- don't think I've ever seen that before. Monster fangs for sure!

Wow, that is crazy!

Cindy- like all your UFs.
Debra- True To Whim seedling, really looks like a winner.
David- welcome to the forum, some nice seedlings.
Ashton- Its weird what you can find in the seedling beds.
Leslie- that seedlings second bloom was normal.

Will start planting seed this morning, a week earlier than last year.

Thanks Fred!!!

Cindy, whomever the parents of that last seedling are, I love the color.

I agree with you Leslie! It's beautiful!

You know, I have gotten some really unexpected blooms from crosses. My seedling crosses of Dragonfly Dawn x Dragonfly Dawn (seeds from Rich on the LA) produced 4 interesting blooming seedlings. My favorite one is the "pink" one, which was NOT a color I was expecting at all. So you just never know what genetics will show up in a seedling. I wished I knew what some of the other seedlings looked like in the genetic line of Cindy's "ED BROWN X FORESTLAKE RAGAMUFFIN" seedling. One of those unknown or no photo genes could be what helped create Cindy's beauty.

Here is a pedigree chart of my 4 DD x DD seedling blooms (I've posted this particular chart before):



Look how different, yet similar they all are!! So interesting to see what some crosses can produce in the flowers.

Thanks Leslie and Becky. I hope I can figure out what it's parentage is.

Becky, I love your charts.

Leslie - Thanks! I used a scrapbook program to create the template and then I manually add the bloom photos and names. Seeing the genetic tree gives you more vision than just the immediate parents. And there is always surprises in there, too! To me to look at a daylily pedigree chart is fascinating. If you look really closely, you can see resemblances to previous generations in some crosses. Very, very cool!

PlantStep software will do genetics for you too.
