Seedling (#20ellis) x Military School

Sandy Ellis seedling #20 (Indian Giver x Pink Super Spider) Absolutely fabulous performer in my zone 5/6 garden. Lots of buds. Blooms over a long period, saturated color blooms in a dark red overshot with purple with darker rays of color coming out from a big green throat. Velvety substance. Fast to increase. Mid to late season, 5 inch bloom. I think the watermarked eye, which isn't very visible in this picture, will pick up the pattern of Military School, at least thats what I'm hoping.

MILITARY SCHOOL (Santa Lucia) 2006) DIP DOR (Spanish Fandango x Seedling) Burgundy purple with a chevron patterned eyezone. Yellow throat fades into a green heart. Transmits the layered chevron pattern well. A major breakthrough for spidery patterned daylilies. Midseason. 6” bloom, 20 blooms. 30 inch scape, 2 branches.
