Diana, Tim, Sue, Fred, and Mary - I hope you all are right! I don't know why, but a pink bloom didn't even occur to me. I was thinking either a deep red or a purple bloom. I would love a pink bloom! And with bi-tone sepals would be awesome! Now I am excited to see what this baby produces. I think this is why I never get bored of daylilies ..... Constant surprises during the bloom season!
Fred and Josie - Thank you for the compliment on my seedling (CCC01). I am going to register it (hopefully this year). I already have a few names to consider. My family members are going to get some and then I will share some fans with others. It would be a good parent plant for hybridizing because of the scape bud count and branching. I am curious if it is a definite evergreen. Josie, you might be a person I would like to share a couple fans with, to see how it does in Zone 5b. I have a pretty strong feeling though, that it is an evergreen because it's habits are that of an evergreen.
