Striped and variegated daylilies!

PEPPERMINT ICE HAS VARIEGATED BLOOMS

I am currently breeding with variegated-bloom daylilies. Imagine bold white stripes on purple - or on ruby-red, wouldn't that be striking? Peppermint Ice (Lovell 04) and Pink Stripes (Derrow 05) have consistent striping and have produced striped offspring. They are dips. I am also working with some tets - Broken Promise (Story 06) which is the parent of "Shattered" and some tets that I've observed to have a tendency to have broken colors. For examples of beautiful broken-color iris, which are much further along, google Batik + Iris. My ultimate goal would be to have variegated blooms on plants with variegated foliage, but my variegated foliage daylilies haven't cooperated with me yet!

2010 update: working with "Dr. Pepper" (Greg Schindler unreg.) Had a nice speckled tet show up unexpectedly in my seedlings. Also using some variegated dip seedlings and Dottie Do Little. White Stripes crossed with a dip variegated seedling - progress!


seedling - some petals poorly formed (just on this one bloom), plant straightened out and is a beauty - nice contrast!
