That is interesting Larry, what a change in color with that first seedling! Somewhere I have an image of Moldovan's Prince of Thieves doing something similar after I purchased it from Steve and planted it here.

Color is always one of the hardest to fill out for me. I really like the color chart from the azalea site for ways to describe bloom color. If there was something distinctive about another part of the cultivar I was registering, for instance variegated foliage or dark buds, I would note it in the color/ description area as well. One of my early registrations has very distinctive "S" shaped scapes and I wish I had noted that in the description at the time of registration. I should make a note to myself for the next time I send in registrations to correct that one.

Branching can be a difficult one for folks to figure out sometimes, myself included. The AHS recently updated the page on branching in the Daylily Dictionary which gives a more detailed explanation of branching than the registration guidelines.
