Misty Jewel, Daylily

*Misty Jewel

*MISTY JEWEL (Stamile, P.) TET 0282-B (Tet Little Leprechaun X Sky Works) 28” M Ev Re CMO Fr. 4.25” 6-way branching. 40 buds.

          MISTY JEWEL brings a different dimension to patterning and blue eyes. I have been trying for several years to bring both patterning and blue eyes together. Blue eyes tend to make blue eyes without patterning while patterns rarely venture toward blue. MISTY JEWEL fortunately allows both patterning and blue eyes to work together.

          MISTY JEWEL has a salmon pink base with a multicolored eye of carmine and wisteria blue with a charcoal, yellow and grass green throat. Petals are edged in carmine, wisteria blue and lavender.

          MISTY JEWEL is a great parent for creams and pinks with red and blue eyes. When crossed to doubles it tends to give reliable doubles. Excellent flower. Fertile both ways.
