Mountain Kaleidoscope (Keast-T., 2010)

Color: purple burgundy with blue lavender eye radiating to yellow green throat


Parentage: (Spooner × Stargate Portal)


scape height  42 in, (107 cm)
bloom size  7.5 in, (19 cm)
bloom season  Midseason
 
form  Unusual Form
Crispate
 
ploidy  Diploid
foliage type  Dormant
bloom habit  Diurnal
 
 
seedling #  D01-04-04
 

2023 Update: It's so pretty!  I love the huge blooms and the differently colored petals and septals.

2024 Update: I like the watercolor fade on the petals. This daylily is still at the old place with the rest of the diploids. It has a small clump. I'm hoping for a larger clump next year!
