Huybridizer notes:

(Rock Solid X Tetra Peppermint Delight) 26” EMRe. Emo. Nofr. Ev. 7” x 3 ¼” x 2 ¼”. 4-way branching (mostly top branched). 21-26 buds.

This huge alabaster white with a huge violet eye and violet edge is one of the largest and flattest of the Tetra PEPPERMINT DELIGHT kids and it comes from the relatively small ROCK SOLID. What is interesting about CHRISTOPHER MOODY is that the eye sometimes breaks into a pattern. Clearly it leads one to the idea of the eye being a huge pallet in which to create patterns. After all, the eye and throat alone in this flower are 5” which is as large as many flowers. It is my goal to have huge patterned eyed daylilies and I think CHRISTOPHER MOODY points the way. Fertile both ways and very dramatic.
