Iphigenia

Iphigenia.  (Daughter of Agamemnon).  Daphnis.  1977.  Advanced generation lutea hybrid.  Rich, bright red flowers are single to semi-double, with two inner rows that face upward. Pink-red sheath and stigmas.  Stamens are maroon, and anthers are a waxy light yellow.  Flowers present themselves by facing the viewer and are borne on sturdy stems.  Extremely floriferous, rivaling suffruticosa flower production. Plants are mounded and grow to 4 feet in Wisconsin, but may be taller in warmer climates.  Very good for us in the open field and as a landscape plant near our house.  No fertility.   A consistent favorite.  Blooms during the later part of the woody season.  Parentage: (BC-2 x Daioh). Ships in late September to mid-October.  AGE: Field-grown, 3+ year old graft or division from larger plants – our choice of available plant material upon harvest.
