Scandal in Bohemia
(Just Fabulous x Triple Cherries) (Carol Todd x Moving Forward) Sev. 6.5" fl. 32" sc. M 20 buds. I realize that we have had red eyes in daylilies for a while now. But, the flowers of Scandal In Bohemia are quite different from the daylilies of yesterday. The eyes are a dramatic, deep, bright red that look like red velvet. The deep velvety red continues around the ruffled petal edges as a red picotee, which is surrounded by a wire gold edge. The eye is mimicked on the sepals, where it extends further out than on the petals. The petal self is a rich rose pink. The plants show good rust resistance and are cold hardy. At the center of the flower is a cool green throat. Thanks to Larry Grace for the early use of Moving Forward.
