2009 Summer Seedlings - Tetraploid Yellows

YELLOWS

(SUPREME EMPIRE x AMERICAS MOST WANTED 1) X T06-01 (GREAT WHITE x JT DAVIS)

The quality of the pod parent which came from a batch of seeds from Richard Norris has always amazed me - 2 years ago several scapes had 40+ blooms and a clump of 10 fans produced 16 scapes. And T06-01 is just the most refined face on a seedling that I've ever produced - the combination of traits from the 2 parents was excellent.

T06-02 - DIAMONDS AND PEARLS X CLARIFICATION

26" scape, 6" blooms, 3 laterals, 26 buds, a creamy yellow that is easily fertile both ways and even with an edge like this, it consistently opens well. I haven't used it much in hybridizing but that changed this summer and it is going in the ghse this winter.

CELESTIAL ARMY x ELEANOR ROOSEVELT

24" scape, 6.5" blooms, 2 laterals

(SUPREME EMPIRE x AMERICA'S MOST WANTED ) X GREAT WHITE

28" scape, 6.5" blooms, 3 laterals, instant rebloom, fertile both ways - perhaps not really a yellow but it's not white or even near white to my eye, so it goes here.

RAM X RUFFLED BOUQUET DELUXE

24" scape, 7" blooms, 2 laterals
