RAINBOWS IN THE WHIRLPOOL 6701 (WATERMELON AURA (sdlg) X UNDEFINABLE) TET, BROKEN, STIPPLED, STRIPED, FRAGRANT A FABULOUS VERY FRAGRANT BROKEN SEEDLING BLOOMING FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE FALL..COLD NIGHTS, BUT STILL SO FRAGRANT. THE COLOR PATTERN RANGES FROM STRIPES ON THE SEPALS TO BIG DARK SPLASHES ON THE PETALS AND A HUGE GREEN THROAT WITHIN A CIRCLED HALO IN CHARTREUSE.

FLOWER IS 6 INCHES AND 28 INCHES TALL THIS FALL.

REDEFINABLE M. Holmes. (2024) TET, BROKEN, STIPPLED, TEETH, (Toothy Perfection x sdlg.), Mid., Ev., Tet., 22", 5.75", 12 bc., 3 way branching. Redefinable is being sold as a hybridizer's daylily. Redefinable has been an excellent breeding daylily taking many variegated daylilies to the next level of fancy. I have many examples proving this to be true. Look at our Facebook page to see examples. As pictured, Redefinable does not carry the same variegation from bloom to bloom. Redefinable re-blooms up to 3 times. The first scape is short, blooms early, and the blooms aren't very fancy. The re-bloom scapes have been measured at 26 inches. As the daylily settles in during the season, the blooms become more fancy and heavy edged. Redefinable is an easy pod parent. Redefinable does not make huge fans. For folks that have grown Ragamuffin, I use that daylily as a guide as far a fan size comparison. Redefinable is being grown out for me in the South. If Rust is an issue for you, wait another year. Redefinable while evergreen, is a Northern Hardy Evergreen. I've grown Redefinable in zone 6 without snow cover multiple years. However I would recommend mulching it for the winter.

USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 4-10. If you liked my 2013 Brown Delicious, then you are going to absolutely LOVE Sable Perfection.

Sable perfection has all the wonderful qualities of its full sib, but with a sultry, sexy rich Sable fur color and finish to its petals, with an absolutely show stopping, almost black eye offset by a bright green throat. Spotted on its petals, it offers a look rarely seen in the garden. With an 8 inch bloom on 36 inch scapes, this will be a centerpiece in your garden. Outstanding branching and plant habit, and extends the bloom season with its mid to late bloom. One of my best introductions this year. A GEM you don't want to miss.

SHATTERED (STORY 2006) RARE…DIFFICULT TO GROW... TET, BROKEN, STIPPLED, BLUE, JUDY SAYS: WOW! GORGEOUS LILAC BROKEN PATTERN AND DOES THE HALF COLORED PETAL ON SOME BLOOMS… SHATTERED has been released only a few times since it was registered,as it has had all kinds of pitfalls plague it since then. The year after lining it out, a flood washed all but one piece into the river.Two years later, it had almost the entire clump eaten off at the soil line by voles. I finally got smart and moved in close to the house where I can keep an eye on it!! SHATTERED makes small plants, bloom is 5", scape 25", 3 branches per scape with up to 18 buds, will rebloom readily when established. Parentage is BROKEN PROMISE X DESTINED TO SEE. The stable 'Rembrandt' pattern is what sets this daylily apart, I have never had it bloom without significant streaking on the petals. Pollen is very good, pods take some work. To be honest, I have not tried setting pods much on my plants to keep from stressing them out. The seedlings I have bloomed from it were crossed with HEAVEN'S MIRAGE and its sibs. These have shown significant patterns in the eyes, and a few have also manifested the 'Rembrandt' markings. I think this will become more apparent when the 2nd and 3rd generations are bloomed, and some backcrossing done with SHATTERED into these also. A work in progress for the aggressive and far-thinking hybridizer to increase the gene pool of this color pattern. Shattered (Story, 2006) height 25in (64cm), bloom 5in (12.5cm), season M, Semi-Evergreen, Tetraploid, 18 buds, 3 branches,  Pale lavender polychrome with gold edge above green throat.

STARMAN (Howard 2022) BROKEN, TET, TEETH, (Wolverine X Undefinable) 28”/6.5”—M, Sev, Tet. Two way branching and 14 buds. Fertile both ways. Light yellow with a toothy edge and variable patterned color breaks of purple stripes, spots, and streaks. Will sometimes exhibit extra petaloid tissue. I have a long waiting list on this one—and I do not know how much to ask for it. When I do an official website release, I will go through the list in order. I need to do a fan count (they are in pots in various places) to decide when that will be. It could be as soon as next spring. It has been grown outside here in zone 6 in Connecticut in the ground the last two winters. This bloom has been one of the most dramatic I have seen in my lifetime. Every bloom is different, but they have always shown some color break. First blooms can be over 7”. It will pass on color breaks-not sure what percentage of the time.

STELLAR IMPACT (JOSH JAQUES 2022) DIP, APPLIQUE, Stellar Impact is one of the most intriguing flowers I have had the privilege to bloom. Its unique pattern changes from day to day.

6", 30', M, Sev, Tet, 17-22 buds, 4 way, Re
Cream faun with a pattern eye of burgundy, green, and cream
This one can blow my mind! The pattern is not stable to say the least. So if you want the same look every day this is not for you. Super strong plants, very good scape, quite flat open form, and lots of proliferations. I have as many small plants in the greenhouse from proliferations as I have fans outside. I'm pretty sure it's a sibling to Blurry Face (Celtic Butterfly x Four Beasts In One).

STRIPED ACTION (M.Holmes. 2022) TET, STRIPED, BROKEN, Sdlg T1076, (Tidewater Elf x R50) Tet, Semi, 32 H, 5 way, 25+ buds Re When Nicole released her Undefinable, Larry Grace and I set out to her house to purchase it. We both were intrigued with her generational breakthrough daylily. Nicole had been using Undefinable for several years and had bloomed examples of the striping passed along to the children. I began crossing Undefinable into all sorts of daylilies. After many crosses, I bloomed several bridge plants to work with. R50(Marrisa Jonea x Rattlesnake Rake) x Undefinable was one of those crosses. Sandy's Tidewater Elf has always been a stellar daylily for us at Riverbend. And after several hundred crosses with R50 crossed onto Tidewater Elf, I bloomed ONE that was close to what I wanted. (I had wanted a dormant). But I was still pleased with STRIPED ACTION. It has been tested in the North and South. It has a tall scape with very consistent blooms showing stripes. It is extremely easy to hybridize with. Exhibition show people will be equally pleased with the show scape and unusual bloom. Limited S.F. Pod/ Pollen Fertile

Ever bloomer If the first thing you think of here is “Oh My God” then I agree… There is nothing average about this daylily, nor does it have bad hair days. TUMBLEWEED is the garden name for 563 A, there were many lovelies from this cross, but this one - all came together. A favorite of Karen and mine, and well everyone. Besides having all good traits, TUMBLEWEED is another daylily where even after setting seed, on the 3rd and 4thset of scapes and more, the plant does not shrink down. It is very healthy and sports my typical low arching mound of foliage, with taller scapes. Dark plum, black eye, rich in color, double edging of only teeth and tentacles, in both pure white and chartreuse lemon on both wide petals and sepals. Opens like a champion, and as a breeder has MANY possibilities – Just think about it… Extremely pod and pollen fertile.  TUMBLEWEED and her kids will take you far. The picture can say the rest.

I LOVE THE PATTERNS AND THE RUFFLES AND SOMETIMES IT HAS A POLY BLOOM! Tetraploid (Parentage Unknown) Ev. EM Re 24-26” scapes, 5.5” flowers, 13 buds. Where does one begin to make an attempt to describe this flower? I will recommend looking at the many pictures I have posted for this flower. You will be able to see, this flower is always different. It never has an off day, or turns to a solid flower. How fun! UNDEFINABLE has been the best parent! Throwing the most amazing breaks in genetics. Sometimes, it does not pass its traits on. But, when it does, you will be very happy. And, wonderfully enough, it is very fertile!! Very fertile both ways.  

DISPLAY.... UNPREDICTABLE (Howard 2023) BROKEN, TEETH, STRIPES (Wolverine X Undefinable)—28”/5.25”—MLa ,Sev, Tet. Two way branching and 13 buds. Fertile both ways. Lemon chiffon with serrated edge and variable patterned color breaks of purple stripes, spots and streaks. Sib to Starman, Whiskey Glasses and Blame it on the Rain.  It has been grown outside here in zone 6 in Connecticut in the ground the last two winters.It is fertile both ways and passes on broken color--not sure of the exact percentage it does so. It will often have larger segments than its siblings that will display broken color.
