Can anyone lend some help with identifying this one?
It is a mid-season poet (surprisingly almost early season some years), which grows in profusion in the immediate local area here. As I’ve discussed with Sara VanBeck, it is common enough here to be a rival in numbers to Van Sion. Considering that and the places it occurs, I have no doubt it is of historic age, but didn’t want to limit my search to the historic listserv members.
It is a small bloom, about 2″ or 52 mm or so. It is of standard height usually. (For that and other reasons, it is not Minuet).
The outside shots below are of it as a fully mature bloom, starting to age slightly. The indoor after a couple days in a cup. One could possible code this W-GYWR. The white band below the medium red is standard throughout every example I’ve seen (best show in the outside pictures).
It is not finicky and blooms and spreads with vigor.
I’ve looked extensively through daffseek and to my eye can distinguish it any I’ve searched. Could it a species?
Your thoughts appreciated.
