Iphigenia.  (Daughter of Agamemnon).  Daphnis.  1977.  Advanced generation lutea hybrid.  Single to semi- double, two rows of petals-inner row rise upward, bright clear red.  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.  Field grown, 4+ year old graft or division from larger plants – our choice of available plant material upon harvest.
