Mahieu-Burris 2007 daylily registrations, 2008 intros

Mahieu-Burris 2007 Daylily Registrations Brian Mahieu using H. citrina for nocturnal hybridization

This fall we have registered many new plants in my Viking Series, launched a new Egyptian Series, as well as a Space Series. There are new additions to my Volcano, Hawaiian and Snake Series and blooms that range in size from 4 to 11 inches with scape heights up to 78 inches! Many of these new registrations are Unusual Forms, some are Spiders and there are some that are single, large flowers that fit no class – just what Rosemary Whitacre called "long-petaled lilies". The latter are from spider/unusual forms lines and will be useful breeding stock for these forms. Of the 40 registrations, 38 are nocturnal extended bloomers, most open for at least 24 hours. H. citrina (pictured at right) is the matriarch of these lines. I am very excited to finally have F2 and F3 seedlings out of H. citrina ready to release to gardeners. (see MARAMA, ORCHID CONVERGENCE, STEWART PEDEN SMITH, SVENSKA, THORHALL THE HUNTER and RÖGNVALDURSSON to name a few).

Plant stats (especially buds and branching) do not reflect genetic potential. The 2007 growing season was marred by a severe late-April freeze, and record-setting heat and drought in Kentucky. After the warmest March on record (average daytime temperature of 82 degrees F) there was a severe late April freeze with 4 nights below 20 degrees F and one night at 13 degrees. The fans were frozen up to an inch below the surface. Severe drought and heat followed with 21 days over 100 degrees F, and one day of 113 degrees. There was no rain from May 14 to July 2 and David withheld water to test these plants for drought tolerance. Developed in the climatically volatile Midwest, (USDA zone 5-b, -10 to -15 F, -23.4 to -26.1 C) these daylilies display unique form as well a gardenability unusual in many of today's introductions. We are confident these plants can withstand severe Midwestern weather, and with escalating climate change this hardiness is increasingly critical.

All are diploid except there is one tetraploid** introduction from very rare bloodlines: EVENT HORIZON. Also represented here are a number of plants that will cross with both diploids and tetraploids via unreduced gametes* APOPHIS to name one. These plants are exciting bridges between the diploid Spider/UF gene pool and the tetraploid genepool. Most are fertile both ways, all fertile one way or the other as noted. Thumbnails will expand to large images, slide show of all 2007 registrations at bottom of page.

All of these are scheduled to be introduced Spring of 2008, unless otherwise noted as Fall 2008. Several are extremely limited and these are noted, as are SOLD OUT cultivars. Some daylilies (especially diploids) make genetically small fans. For those used to seeing tetraploids as big as one's wrist this can be shocking. Genetically small fans are no indication of a weak plant. We have noted the cultivars below that produce genetically small fans.

	MB-1 APOPHIS 42 M INSTANT REBLOOM, 7.5, 4X26, NOC EXT, DOR. PINCHED CRISPATE UF purple black with velvety black halo chartreuse throat. Superlative in every way, very consistent form. This is one of the most fertile plants David and I have ever seen. Radically fertile both ways with diploids, and will set pods on tetraploids. Microscopic examination of pollen shows both diploid and tetraploid pollen indicating unreduced gametes. Set pods on these tets: 'Outrageous Fortune" some of John Kinnebrew's 'Spacecoast' series and Laura Burris's tetraploid seedlings. more information on my black and brown daylilies here. Apophis will occasionally polytepal. POLY PIC [{seedling x (SERPENT’S TOOTH x SATYR)}X(SATCHMO x BLUE VENTURE)] $250.00 d/f Spring '08 SOLD OUT*
	MB-2 MARAMA 42 ML, 10, 5X24, NOC, EXT, FR, DOR. CASCADE UF huge tropical coral-rose blend with orange sherbet throat. Named for a character in James Michener’s novel Hawaii, also the Polynesian goddess of the moon. In Michener’s novel Marama was the priestess who brought the first flowers to Hawaii from Bora Bora. This gorgeous flower was one of my favorite breeders in this palette in '07, a great addition to my Hawaiian lines and stunning F2 seedling out of H. citrina. Please look at clump pic. 'Tylwyth Teg' was one of Rosemary Whitacre's favorite breeding plants she told me I could get all colors out of her and to "use it". I did. more information on my citrina lines here.

	MB-3 HOODED COBRA 28 EM INSTANT REBLOOM, 5.5, 3X16, 60% 4X4 POLYTEPAL, NOC EXT, NFR, DOR. PINCHED CRISPATE UF irridescent brown with black eye and gold to green throat. Brown daylilies are a combination of fulvous orange pigments with purple and blue pigments (actually I think that just about every daylily pigment is in there). The purples (anthocyanin- based hues) have a tendency to be temperature sensitive, and if they are, the purple of a brown bloom may fade leaving a more brownish hue. Please look at the polytepal pic of 'Hooded Cobra', this was taken in a shady garden setting and shows the deeper chocolate colors that will mature to lighter brown in full sun or heat. Intensely fertile both ways. more information on my black and brown daylilies here. [{seedling x (SERPENT’S TOOTH x SATYR)}X seedling ] seedlings are: reuther's brown spider and probably 'Satchmo' and 'Brown Recluse'. This line of breeding is replete with polytepal genes from at least 3 of the parents. vigorous grower with genetically small fans $75.00 d/f Spring '08 POLYTEPAL PIC
	MB-4 BORA BORA 32 EM 6.5, 3X16, NOC EXT, NFR, DOR, CASCADE UF coral pink, mango and cadmium yellow polychrome with huge kiwi throat. pollen fertile only.

I was saving this name for my most saturated purple to-date, that is a tie with NEFERTARI, and I liked this form better for CLAUDE MONET. Excellent bloodlines for killer Spider/UFs in clear purple-blue and lavender colors. PURPLE SATELLITE is a proven parent for narrow UFs with purple-blue eyes, which are much more rare in the spider/UF class (maroon eyes are dominant). The chevron-shaped blue band comes 3/4 of the way out the petals and is webbed and edged darker, please see PIC #2 and PIC #3DETAIL. Stunning flower!

	MB-7 AMY MACK 42 M 8, 3X18, NOC EXT FR DOR, SPAT UF gorgeous rainbow polychrome of creamy melon pink with a lavender overlay and huge creamy lemon watermark, bitone. I feel this flower is a breakthrough into a new class of UFs along with ORCHID CONVERGENCE. The intensely orchid-like shape of the cascading spatulate is becoming a breeder's hallmark for me. Named for my dear friend and adopted sister, artist Amy Mack.

This flower is named for the woman who introduced me to daylilies: Mavis (née Carter) Smith. I also named a daylily to honor her husband Stewart this year. The pod parent of MGC is ‘Rosella Flight’ Mahieu ‘03 or a sibling: this is a great example of a very modern form coming from “simple” or “old-fashioned” flowers.

	MB-12 OLAF THE CONQUEROR 70 M 10, 3X18 NOC EXT FR hardy EV CASCADE UF diamond dusted suede blooms of creamy lemon, chartreuse and greenish white with kiwi throat. commanding garden presence. My only evergreen introduction ever. I cull ruthlessly in early spring for winter damaged foliage. 'Olaf' survived years of this treatment, and I was surprized to learn he is fully evergreen. This would be a good candidate for those in the South who want to grow my plants. OLAF is a great parent, and was probably the pollen parent of NOORLAND though the tag was lost.
