I thought some of you might like to see one of my seedlings. I think it is pretty

That's pretty cool, what's it called?

It does not have a registered name. Was born in my pond!

Its georgous!

Very interesting veining in that bloom LouAnn

Worthy of persuing if you ask my opinion. How far are you from getting it to tuber and propagate?

Cheers,
Sean

I won't be able to try till september, I am going to visit family in Pa. I had blooms all winter last year here. I am glad you like it. It has been so hot, the sepals fried a bit.

I like the veining, too- and the curly sepals. Are they always curly like that?

Nice color, too.

LouAnn · « **Reply #7 on:** August 26, 2006, 09:28:32 PM »

Hi Karen, they are twisted and a little burnt from the hot all day sun. Otherwise they have a nice graceful shape. Thanks!

It's lovely . . . . and different. You might just have a winner there!

That is very pretty! I also like the veining, it's unusual.

What are the pads like on this hybrid LouAnn?

Cheers,
Sean

LouAnn · « **Reply #11 on:** August 27, 2006, 12:06:57 PM »

They are marbled, and oval. I will get a pic for you.

LouAnn · « **Reply #12 on:** August 27, 2006, 03:39:31 PM »

Here is one Sean. They are more oval than they appear in this picture. Underneath is speckled with purple. New pads are a bit redder than this mature one.

Hi LouAnn,

It has really gotten to the point where you, Sean, Louis and Gary..at least that I know off....should consider entering the New Waterlily Competition. Time for you guys to strut your stuff!<g>

I suspect next year a competition will be sponsored by the WGI and I am very interested in any suggestions people have as to possible ways to run and/ or improve it. I know I have a host of them, but don't think I will be directly involved in the committee, because...well then I couldn't enter.<g> Still someone will want to hear them.

Yep . . . . there are some pretty awsome seedlings being shown here . . . . cannot imagine that anyone has anything that much better . . . .

Hi Lou Ann:

Nice hybrid, if you are near Philly send me a PM and we can meet out at Longwood Gardens!!

LouAnn · « **Reply #16 on:** August 28, 2006, 06:58:35 PM »

Thanks Craig! That means a lot from you. I have a good crop of seedlings, one or two nice ones. Lucky!
I would love to see Longwood Gardens, but this is a work trip. Unfortunately.

Hi LouAnn,

Very cool lily you have there. I especially like the little "tracks" of spots on top of the pad. The veining in the petals is very nice too. Awesome job!

Hi Louann, that is a definite winner. do you know the parentage?

LouAnn · « **Reply #20 on:** August 29, 2006, 04:37:45 PM »

Thanks All! Lou, I have my suspicions, but I do not know for sure. I took another pic today, I will post it in a bit. I left the camera outside.

LouAnn--I think you've got a winner with that one
