Tessera

Tessera. Daphnis.  1985.  F1 lutea hybrid.  Peach and cream flower that is cupped or ball shaped.  Dark flares at center.  Nicely ruffled petals.  Blooms on and off all summer and into fall for us.  Red stems and unique finely cut foliage.  Plants produce long stems which bloom on and off throughout the summer months, but stem hardiness is poor in Wisconsin.  Reliably blooms once established.  A collectors plant that is rarely available.  Unknown fertility, but seed has been reported by other hybridizers.  Ships in late September to mid October.  AGE: Field grown, 4+ year old graft or division from larger plants – our choice of available plant material upon harvest.
