String Bikini x Tetra Magic of Oz
Tet, unusual form
This is my favorite seedling from TETRA MAGIC OF OZ and I have given it my garden name.
DAYBLOOMER DREAMS was my first AHS registration using TET MAGIC OF OZ, followed by my 2011 registration SWEET HOME LOUISIANA. To my knowledge these are the only two registrations from TET MAGIC OF OZ. TET MAGIC OF OZ pollen was hard for me to use so I spread the pollen from DAYBLOOMER DREAMS all over the garden! Crossed with Pat Stamiles very pod fertile STRING BIKINI, DAYBLOOMER DREAMS is a 10 inch (with 11 ½ wingspan) neon cherry rose color with an intense chartreuse throat which extends far out on the petals and sepals. 31 inch scapes have 4 way branching with 20 buds. The pollen is easy! It blooms early to midseason and I have set pods on it early in the bloom season before the days get hot. A vigorous grower that has medium sized evergreen foliage.
