Description: This is an amazing kid out of my '04 intro Galaxy Explosion. It's a little confused on what form it wants to take but who cares with an eye like this. This group it came out of has also some hot pinks and yellows but nothing as blue as this. Just shows you the awesome power Galaxy Explosion has locked within it's genes. The color is a rich royal purple with light sepals which officially makes it a bi-tone. It has an extremely light throat of cream with just a touch yellow. And then there is the eye. It has the clearest blue eye of any daylily I've seen yet. Alot of the "Blue" ones I have are really a lavender or purple or a blend of both. Not this one. Very Pod and Pollen fertile. Has good 4 way branching with a bud count of around 24 or so. Proliferates well and is super extended staying open 24 hours or more for me here. It was not registered as a rebloomer but it has rebloomed some and the degree of rebloom varies from year to year. The clear rich royal purple color is a beautiful contrast against the blue eye and near white throat. This daylily is an extremely important color break.When we dug BBB up to line out and to pot up, I noticed it had huge kwanso - like roots and was very rhizomates as well. This was very exciting to see after noting how well it performed in the past few summera as we have had some of the worst drought and heat conditions on record ever for our region. When others were withering away in the heat, BBB kept right on going and flourishing. It is pod fertile and extremely pollen fertile. Some of the F-1 seedlings out of BBB are stunning to say the least. Many of them even better than BBB. This plant is an a must have for the hybridizer wanting to get clear blues.
