RE: HYB: seedling STEALTH FIGHTER

---

 

I like this seedling, Griff.  It reminds me of an iris I have in my garden, It Ain’t So by Tom Burseen.  IAS is the same color and similar form and has consistent horns.  I’m just having a brain storm.  I think I will try to cross IAS with Romantic Evening and see what blacks I can get from it.  I got some very black from Purple Pirouette by RE.

Griff, I will be waiting for an update in the spring.  Its color is a favorite of mine and if its growth habit and branching are good, probably it will have at least a couple more buds in its second bloom season.

Thanks, Judy.  STEALTH FIGHTER first bloomed as a second-year plant and had the excellent branching you'd expect from its Titan's Glory parentage, but only had 5 buds.  This year was a frantic year, and I can't find notes on a current bud count, so we'll have to wait for spring for a definitive statement.  --  Griff
