Early in the summer bloom season of 2012, we found a seedling that Luel called “dog ears”. It is an open form with the flower size averaging 8 inches. The pod parent was seedling 227-1 ((Forbidden Fantasy x Dawn in Lorien) x Tears for Gus) and the pollen parent was Karol Emmerich’s Entwined in the Vine. These flowers are pictured below.

The “dog ear” seedling was consistently large sized, clear in color, and opened well. We used the pollen successfully on a variety of plants including Earth and All Stars, Swallowtail Butterfly, and Cooler by the Lake.Â
