Double Dose. 2007.
Bremer (Francis Joiner x (Quiet Earth x unknown)). Sdlg.
#FJX1. Diploid. 22" height, 4.5 to 5" flowers, 2-3 short
laterals and the typical terminal 'y', average of 14
buds. Mid season. Dormant. DEF. Double Dose is
a bright butterscotch yellow double flower. Typically
it blooms in bouquets and is stunning in a clump. DD is a
fast increaser and becomes a nice clump within 2 to 3 years from a
single fan. Flowering is always 100% double here, that's to
say we've never seen a single flower on a scape in five
years. Bud counts are not large, but the number of scapes
produced more than makes up for the modest 14 to 17 buds on a
typical scape. Pollen easy, pods with effort. Please
see catalog for up to date pricing. |

*Feathered Storm. 2007.
Seidl/Bremer
(Night Embers x Highland Lord). Sdlg.#NEHL#3.
Tetraploid. 32" height, 5" flowers. 3
nice lateral branches with terminal 'y's'. 18 t0 23
buds. Dormant! 100% double. DEF. Feathered
Storm is a
wonderful full formed red with cream edges. Plants are
vigorous growers and extremely floriferous. After blooming a row
of better than 100 plants of this cross we selected five that
consistently produced double flowers and had excellent plant
habits. This is the first of at least three that will be
introduced from this cross. Tetraploid doubles that grow in
the north are rarities and we are excited to offer Feathered Storm
for it's dependable performance in cold climates. Please see
catalog for up to date pricing. |

*Itchy
Fingers.
2007. Bremer
((Reckamp Seedling x Friar's Lantern) x Destined to See)).
Sdlg. #DTDF. Tetraploid.24" height, 6.25" flowers. 2
laterals & 16 to 20 buds. Mid-late
season. Evergreen. Lavender-plum colored petals
are contrasted with creamy light pink sepals. Exotic and
unconventional in form, Itchy Fingers can be considered a UF since
the petals often pinch or canoe and the sepals will sometimes
recurve. Other days it will present itself as a more flat
flower of star shape. A fine white bubbled edge also is
quite noticeable on warmer Wisconsin days. IF has a small
eyezone, just above a broad yellow-green throat, that is of slate
blue color with unusual 'spot' patterns that occur in rows to
create the eyezone. We used it much
in hybridizing UF's and have seen a number of promising seedlings
from IF this past summer. Foliage is evergreen, but the
plant has survived and flourished after the two most horrific
winters we've had since 2000. Fertile both ways and not well
explored. Please see catalog for up to date pricing. |

*Molten Maiden. 2007. Bremer
(Mauna Loa (Ruby Sentinel x Burning Inheritance)). 25" height,
4.75" flowers. 3 to 4 nice top branches & 18 to 25 buds. Mid
season. Dormant. Sunfast. DEF. Good foliage and fast
increaser. Makes a good size clump in just two years.
The image is very accurate for color. Orange-red with a
glowing yellow throat. Molten Maiden is a heavy bloomer and
is outstanding in a clump. Plants are typically loaded with
open flowers each day. Scapes are sturdy and straight.
Flowers open wide in all weather conditions and stand up to sun
very well. Difficult to overlook in the garden. Easily
fertile both ways. Please see catalog for up to date
pricing. |

Panties In A Bunch.
2007.
Bremer (Francis Joiner x (Quiet Earth x unknown)). Sdlg.
#FJX2. Diploid. 24"
height, 5" flowers, top branched & 12 to 15 buds.
Mid season. Dormant. DEF. The dirty sister to Double Dose,
PIAB is a fun plant to see in bloom because it resembles lacy
beige underwear in a bunch. Typically it will bloom more
than one flower at a time and give a bunched affect, which is
quite interesting and beautiful. The overall color is a
beige-melon blend that sounds terrible, but looks great.
Flowers are nicely ruffled and crunched and are 100% double.
Like Double Dose it is a blooming fool and a fast increaser.
Pollen easy, pods with effort. Please see catalog for up to
date pricing. |

*Ravenous.
2007. Bremer (Summer Tanager x Point of View) . Sdlg.
#STPV1. Tetraploid. 52" height, 6.5"
flowers. DEF. 1 to 2 laterals top 'y' branches, average of 16
buds. Mid season. Dormant. Super tall, red and a
monster plant! Ravenous is a good old fashioned star shape
with some great size and a scape that will get it noticed almost
anywhere. Flowers hold their color very well in the
sun. The seed came from Karen Trester some years ago as
a gift and Ravenous has been drawing blood since. Scapes are
wide and strong and easily carry the large flowers without
tipping or bending. Customers loved it in the seedling bed the
last few years and have wanted it as an accent plant or
background plant. Most of the very tall daylilies are
yellow, so this should be a great partner for plants like Sears
Tower and Notify Ground Crew. Fertile both ways.

*Sarcastic
Intentions.
2007. Bremer (Better
Than Ever x Love's Call). Sdlg.#BTELC1. Tetraploid.
26" height,
5.5" flowers. 2 laterals and 'y' terminal, 15 to
20 buds. Early-mid season. Dormant. Excellent
dark green foliage throughout the summer. A very
nice saturated red that lacks the orange tones seen in so many
reds-more of a red leaning toward rose. SI has extremely
nice foliage of deep blue-green that holds up to drought a
heat. Flowers hold up reasonably well on hot sunny
days. Plants bloom for the better part of a month and
present the flowers proportionally above the foliage (they look
great on top of the plant). Flowers have consistent wavy
ruffles and overall substance is very heavy. Throat is
yellow, but appealing. A moderate increaser. Pollen and pods
are easy. Please see
catalog for up to date pricing. |

Treasured Treat.
2007. Bremer
(Tropicana Treat x Stolen Treasure). Sdlg.TTRS2.
Diploid. 18" height, 7 to 7.5" flowers. 2 lateral branches with terminal
'y's'. 15 to 18 buds. Dormant. Treasured Treat
is a huge luscious rose-pink flower with a soft cream
watermark. The flower opens easily and color is always
good. The throat area is large and cream, then yellow and
finally green at the center. Petals have wonderfully wavy
edges. Petals recurve slightly. More than one flower
is often open at one time, but generally do not interfere with
each other. Scapes are short, but so is the foliage which
never hides the huge flowers. Treasured Treat is not a fast
increaser, but generally doubles it's size each year. A
stunning flower that will never get missed and is quite different
than anything else in the garden. Please see catalog for up
to date pricing. |

*Turkey Shoot.
2007.
Bremer (Love's Call x
Bela Lugosi). Sdlg.#LCBL1 Tetraploid. 42" height,
5.25"+ flowers. 3 lateral branches and terminal 'y's'. 30
to 40 buds (sometimes more). Dormant. Turkey Shoot is one
wild plant! Flowers are a maroon-raspberry color with darker
veining leading to a darker halo, above a yellow throat that turn
to green at the center. Plants are moderate growers and
flower production is high on each scape. Flowers are carried
high up on the scapes and often bloom as bouquets (sometimes more
crowed than I'd like). Because it is tall and flowers are
well formed it is very noticeable in the garden, much more than
other flowers of it's color. Excellent foliage throughout
the summer. Fertile both ways. Please see catalog for
up to date pricing. |
