| IROQUOIS MAIDEN full sibling to Mahieu-Burris '07 intro "Iroquois Chief" and also Mahieu's "Seneca Maiden". Pollen parent "Belladonna Starfish" is parent of "Purple Satellite" and has proven to be an incredible parent for purple UFos. See my article with pics here. Mahieu Diploid 98-472 H Rosemary Whitacre told me stories of Iroquois indians who had blue eyes because they carried Viking blood in their veins -- hence the name for this blue eyed flower. The blooms are glittering ivory with an etched and layered lavender-blue eye. Floral segments are ruffled with a sparkling edge, substance is suede-like and weather resistant. Dark green throat lasts all day. An important bridge plant for getting the substance and eye patterns of round and ruffled hems on the shapes of Unusual Forms. The next generation from IROQUOIS MAIDEN is truly stunning! Won best seedling at the Central Missouri Hemerocallis Society show in 2003.
