Author Topic: New multi petal Tropical Hybrid (Read 2805 times)

Most of my new hybrids for this year were lunch for some deer.
Some I had inside the greenhouse and those are saved.

Here is one that is rather nice. i counted 41 petals. the pads are mottled maroon on green. plant is big, pads are about 13 inches long and the bloom is about 5 - 6 inches wide. this is a first day bloom.

GREAT*** Hybrid Lou.
If and when you name it and propagate it I would like to be the 1st in line to buy one.
Any chance it is a vip to speed up the process???
Once again... beautiful.

Beautiful lily. Is one of it's parents Rasberry sorbet by any chance? I still love that lily too.

Very nice Lou,

I have a couple I hope to see first blooms from in a week or so that should show some very good characteristics as well.

Cheers,
Sean

hi maryvonne,

yes raspberry sorbet was the pod parent. the donor was a multi pink from last year. this one picks up some of the raspberry colors.

Beautiful! Glad it was saved from the deer.

Maybe Ed's wife needs to feed him more. He sounds a bit hungry..

emm · « **Reply #18 on:** July 06, 2007, 09:07:49 AM »

Louis, I agree with everyone else, that is sure a beautiful lily! I wonder how you count the number of petals? I'd never be able to keep track unless I pulled them bloom apart.

hi emm,

thats a good question.

what i do is select the pen tool in my graphic program and make a dot on each petal and count as i go.

i then delete the dots,
