Lots of Rebloom Starting

2 years ago

I had a lot of double scaping early in the season, and now I'm getting rebloom on cultivars that have never rebloomed for me before, and some that I didn't know could rebloom. All of the daylilies on this thread are reblooming now.

Absolute Treasure hasn't rebloomed since the first year I had it, and it was growing in a pot.

Baja California has always been a pretty good rebloomer.

Black Panther usually reblooms too.

Bill Norris has not rebloomed in several years, but it has five rebloom scapes this year.

Lydia's Regal Robe is reblooming, and it's not even registered as a rebloomer.

Green Mystique used to rebloom a lot, but it hasn't in three or four years. Two rebloom scapes are going now.

Palace Garden Beauty has never rebloomed where I have it planted now.

Infinity & Beyond has a rebloom scape.

I registered Untamed Heart last year, and wouldn't you know it - this year it reblooms. I always thought it should since both parents were super rebloomers for me. It only has one rebloom scape. This photo is from last week.

Spanish Glow was my runner up for best clump, will likely be the bud king among registered cultivars here, and now has three very well-budded rebloom scapes. This photo shows blooms from one original scape and two rebloom scapes.

I Lava You is not registered as a rebloomer, but I have one rebloom scape.

Nordic Soul always reblooms for me. It has two rebloom scapes going right now.

LIghtning Round was a new one this Spring, and it has a very well-budded rebloom scape. It also looks much whiter on rebloom than on its original scapes when temps were low.

Such A Blaze is a new one blooming for the first time here on rebloom scapes.

Sailing Into the Blue has not rebloomed since the first year I got it.

Several seedlings are starting to rebloom.

Dearest Valentine x Innocent Discovery has one rebloom scape.

Everything You Desire X Dearest Valentine #1 has two rebloom scapes.

Aztec Headdress x Banded Broadbill #1 has a rebloom scape. The first rebloom flower was 8 inches big! (Blooms on original scapes were 6.75-7 inches)

Dancing Flamingo x Bubblegum Delicious had several instant rebloom scapes, and now it has a later rebloom scape at each end of the clump.

Oh Debra, how lucky you are to have rebloom. That multibloom pic of Untamed Heart is so pretty. I like the lighter sepals in contrast to the darker petals. The seedlings are just perfect to these eyes. The two crosses with Dearest Valentine almost look the same but one has just a bit of lighter sepals. What a banner season you've had even if some started out later than typical. Maybe a good thing they did.

Julia.

Kay - I'm glad to hear about your rebloom scapes. With your season starting early, it will be nice to have rebloom scapes continuing the show in June and July. Like Jean, I've got instant rebloom scapes coming on Wonder of it All. And I have rebloom scapes emerging on three that haven't even started blooming yet: Winter Treasure, Blushed with Emerald and Annabelle's Blush. I think it's a combination of last weekend's good, soaking rain and all the watering I've been doing to compensate for the lack of rain in April. Debra

Pat - With instant rebloom, a second scape comes out of the fan a short time after the initial scape. (Some people call this "double scaping." This instant rebloom scape starts blooming while the first scape is finishing its flowers. So you have instant rebloom without waiting. A regular rebloom scape does not emerge from the fan until the first scape is on the downside of blooming or after it has stopped blooming. With regular rebloom, there is a waiting period - sometimes weeks, sometimes months - before the rebloom scape starts flowering. Debra

I just received an order from Paul Owen. What a fun guy to deal with and extremely generous! He was lamenting the fact that his soil was too rich- too much phosphate and he was going to re-do it with less organics. He thought some of the fans he sent would be bigger in "regular" garden soil. I can't wait to see his beauties in my garden especially after your comments.

For jackied... 'Queen Elizabeth' isn't a floribunda. It is actually a grandiflora. I believe, it was the first rose to ever have that classification. Grandifloras grow more like Hybrid Teas than floribundas. They tend to make large blooms on long canes, just like HT's; but grandifloras will make rather nice sprays from time to time as well. It has been many years, since I grew both QE and Climbing QE; but these blooms do sorta look like that old girl. The bush plant of QE does make loads of long-stemmed blooms, but they tended to open to fast for me. I was focusing on show roses at the time, and there were other pinks that were winning the trophies back in the 70's, so both QE and Climbing QE got shovel pruned. Years later, a Queen of Show QE was the talk of the day. Everyone said the same thing, "That rose deserved to win Best in Show, because none of us has been able to grow one that looked that good and could get our blooms of 'Queen Elizabeth' to last long enough for judging." Most blooms of QE will open up very quickly, once they are cut from the bush and placed in water. The warmth of your home or show room will only push them open faster.

Julia - I sure hope you get rebloom on some of yours that were eaten by the deer. The two Dearest Val seedlings look quite different in person. While the rosy red colors are similiar, they are not exactly the same. The first one has a gold edge and a larger bloom, and the second has a white and pink edge.

Wow, Debra, how great is all that rebloom you will be seeing! i am also happy to hear those great seedlings are putting up more scapes now. Nordic Soul is my favorite registered today. Baja California is on the list too, love that big, fat edge.

Thank you, Sherry! I was glad to see Nordic Soul and Baja California with such nice rebloom flowers. Most of the original flowers on those two were either very splotchy or could not open right due to various weather issues this year.

Debra, I can relate to the reloom season! I have had so many reblooms as well. And many of those are on plants that have never rebloomed. Love all of yours. And how good that Untamed Heart can be a rebloomer. Sailing Into the Blue is always pretty. Lightning Round is lovely-love those round white rufflys!

Kate - With all your rain, I expected you to have lots of rebloom. But, as you may remember, we've had very little rain here since March. The only areas I water regularly are the seedling beds. I've become quite enamored with LIghtning Round. It's such a pretty white! I like them round and ruffly too. I only wish it's pollen were stronger. It's failed to produce pod on seedlings and near whites that easily set pods.

I have been getting a lot of rebloom here too, and on a couple of plants not listed as rebloomers. Palace Garden Beauty has 2 rebloom scapes on it, but it has rebloomed at least once before. I am leaning with Sherry, Nordic Soul always gets my attention, and I especially love the look of Baja Cal today. I like Lighning Round too. The 1st Dearest Val slightly has the edge for me, but I love Untamed

Wow, that is a lot of rebloom! And so many beautiful ones. My favorites of these are Nordic Soul [what a throat!], Sailing into the Blue--great color; Green Mystique [the way I like my yellows, very green] Untamed Heart, and the seedling Dancing Flamingo x Bubblegum Delicious. Jane Trimmer is quite interesting too.

Brad and Nancy - The blooms of Nordic Soul are pretty, but the scapes have always been short for me - even when they get the grub treatment. It does set seed well in hot temps though, so I keep it.

I've commented on it before and I will again, how pretty Green Mystique looks. The rebloom is an added bonus........Great shot of your Untamed Heart. If someone wasn't looking for a rebloom it will be a nice surprise.......Lightening Round is a ruffly new one for you. Nice if it brightened up on rebloom. I'm beginning to appreciate "whites" a tad more if I just don't think of them as white white.......My favorite one this round is your picture of Spanish Glow. Nice warm peachy color in amongst all the usual colors...................Maryl

What are the parents of Untamed Heart again? It caught my eye. The Dearest Valentine seedlings also look interesting.

Mantis - The parents of Untamed Heart are Precious Candy and Twilight Illusion, a lavender Salter. UH is semi-evergreen with 29-inch scapes and 5.5-inch blooms. It's an early morning opener and a good multiplier. Although you don't hybridize, it sets seed in the hottest temps.

Lots of (reblooming) beauties! Ah Baja California is so pretty! Love Green Mystique and Lightning Round, and the pic of Untamed Heart multiples. The last seedling Dancing Flamingo x Bubblegum Delicious is my favorite here.

I very rarely have rebloom but double scaping is usual here, not this year though, only 2 plants with 1 dbl scape..

Hi Nat! How is your season going? The seedling you liked is being lined out later this year. If it does well with line-outs, it will be registered next year, and introduced in 2023.

I don't know if I made this comment elsewhere. Wild Red Heart does well here. I wonder why I don't see this plant for sale or posted. One often wonders why some cultivars get "lost" over the years.

Mantis - There was controvery over Wild Red Heart. The Salters originally sold it as Wild at Heart but somehow failed to registered it. Another hybridizer registered a plant with that name in the meantime. About four years later it was registered as Wild Red Heart. Sellers who bought it as Wild at Heart got rid of it because it was not registered as such. I bought mine from someone on the Lily Auction years ago. I actually have seen it posted on NGA, and I've seen seedlings from it posted there. Mine did well before it was devoured by grubs, and went down to one fan. It's taken a long time to bounce back.
