RÖGNVALDUR

Viking series:  a Norwegian Viking commander who occupied the Bretagne region of France.
Mahieu Diploid 98-584 K
[(H citrina x ROSY LIGHTS) X PERSIAN PATTERN]
70 ML 6.5 NOC EXT VFR DOR 3 way branching (lowest branch at 42 inches) 24 buds,  Trumpet form

This is a very TALL daylily, but the semi-open trumpet blooms are out facing.  The bitone flowers have smoky violet petals with a darker purple chevron band.  Sepals are several shades lighter than the petals.  Waxy substance with a creamy lemon to lime green throat.  Branching is very well spaced up the scape, and I expect it will increase in a garden setting.  Great parentage and Fertile both ways! Incredible parent!  Here I am (at right) with the next generation out of Rögnvaldur.  Brian with seedling out of Rognvaldur
He passes on the height as well as bud building, beautifully spaced branching (over 6X) and great color.  This scape matured to over 6'3" tall, and that was after being moved to Kentucky while in full bloom!  Read my article on breeding tall daylilies here.
