I did this guessing game last year on these 3 threads in 2018. I don't know if anyone is interested again to guess what a seedling's blooms might look like?
Last year's guessing game links:
The thread "What do you think my CHILD will look like?" in
Daylilies forum
The thread "What do you think my CHILD will look like - Prediction Game #2?" in
Daylilies forum
The thread "What do you think my CHILD will look like - Prediction Game #3?" in
Daylilies forum
So, while we all wait for Spring to arrive and blooms to delight us, I am going to start the guessing game for 2019:
I currently have one seedling producing scapes and buds. This will be it's 1st year to bloom. It will be interesting to see what this cross produces in flowers. I would love to hear what everyone thinks the blooms will look like. (A kind of guessing or prediction game.)
My first daylily seedling with a single scape and buds .....
UUU07 (sowed August 2017) - Little Jet Setter x CCC01 (Laughing Clown x Zanti Misfit):
Little Jet Setter is a bicolor that I love. Here is the link to read more about this cultivar:
Daylily (Hemerocallis 'Little Jet Setter')
CCC01 is one of the very first seedlings of which I won the seeds on the LA in 2015. It is also one that has been outstanding in my garden. And it is one that I will likely register and name in the future.
So .....
What do YOU think the blooms of UUU07 will look like????
I hope you will join me in this game and post your predictions!
And if you have some brand new seedlings that are showing scapes/buds currently, take a photo of the buds and then list the parents for us to try to predict what the blooms will look like. (Start your own thread if you decide to do this.)
Rule: Only post a photo of seedlings that are CURRENTLY budding. Nothing worse than making a prediction on a seedling that does not bloom at all this year. LOL! I love to see the results shortly after my prediction. So share a photo of the first or second bloom from your seedling once it actually blooms!
Guess away ......
