Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
Here is another I haven't seen flower before. I call it "Big Curl" because the leaves have a big wave to them. The flowers form in clusters up the scape.
Here it is late last season.

Some seed pods on one of the Miss Angie seedlings - I rarely see dark pods like this. These are on "Miss Selene".

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
I noticed these weird structures on one of the plants today.
It's a Katsuragawa Beni seedling from 2008. Turns out they are huge stiff bracts. I'm having problems getting clear photos of this flower. This is the best I could get.

My camera finally decided to focus properly on this Katsuragawa Beni seedling.

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
This one opened this morning - three flowers on two scapes. I showed it last season just labeled Big Quad.

I got better flower photos today - the colored "fringe" showed-up a lot better but one flowers has an "O" on the petals at the base of the center stripe:

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
I just noticed the color at the end of the style. I don't think I have ever noticed color there before. Normally the style is just white leading up to the stigma. I noticed a purple blur on the first photo but the last one shows it pretty well. The other flowers show the purple also but it's just a blur.
Cropped from last photo - still a little fuzzy:

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
Two flowers opened today and one of them has the "O" on the petal - not as good as the first one but still there.
And they all have some purple color at the end of the style.
Here's a different angle.
That dark center area reminds me of another of Art's plants Otter Point (a.k.a #114). There are differences but I need to get a photo of the style on Otter Point. The foliage is similar but there are a couple of others with similar leaves and totally different flowers. I check the style today on a large number of flowers and they all only white.Ed McHugh, Sicklerville NJ

Some really pretty flowers.
Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
I was thinking that the purple on the end of the style was unique and then I found it on Chariots of Fire today. It even has a purple stripe running down the style.
I have to add some photos to the Chariot's of Fire topic.Ed McHugh, Sicklerville NJ

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
This one opened today. I don't think I have seen it flower before. My label says "Smokey seedling" but that was a guess made a couple of years ago. I now think its a seedling from longipes latifolia. The leaf color and shape are similar along with a white back. The flower has the simple "swoosh" down the middle similar to longipes latifolia.

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
Found something "new" in the garden the other day that made me look back at some old photos. I found that I had missed posting this flower from a couple of years ago in this Art Wrede topic. It's one of the Miss Angie seedlings I have been growing - labeled as Q1-C.
The reason it sparked my interest was that a piece of the plant is streaked this season.
The plant showed some streaking back in 2013 while it was in a trough.

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
A couple of seasons ago I posted an Art Wrede #56 --
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=57978&start=20#p495354
I lost track of it after I had re-potted it but just found it again. It's a little sunburned. Hope I can catch it in flower this season.

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
I separated out the streaker I showed a month ago from Miss Angie seedling Q1-C. It came out with a good root system and a piece of crown. If it survives, I'm going to name it "Miss Avery-Rose". The "Miss" is because it is a seedling of Art Wrede's Miss Angie and because he uses the "Miss" in many of his plants. The Avery-Rose is for my newest granddaughter.
Tearing the pot apart left me a bunch of pieces of Q1-C. There was a lot of material.

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
I don't remember if I have posted photos of flowers from this one. I'm adding it to this topic but it's not one of Art Wrede's plants. It's a seedling from Roger Smith - a cross of a Swoosh sdlg X Grand Marquee - that he gave to Art many years ago. When Art gave his plant collection to Roger, I helped with the move and took the pot to grow it out - it was tiny with a streaked seedling and a couple that looked like this - green with a thin white edge. The streaker is still alive but has never gotten big like its siblings.

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
The Miss Angie seedling, I took apart late in June to get the streaked piece out, seems to have survived the ordeal and is putting up new leaves that have some streaking. (Please ignore my foot - I'm holding the pot so there is some distortion in size.)
That's 'Riptide' off to the left.
Also, the #56 I had shown on May 26 has recovered from its sunburn.That's 'Riptide' off to the left.

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
Just tracked down one I don't think I have posted before. I got this plant in 2014. The photos are from this past weekend.

Tracked down another one in flower.
It's the leaves at the bottom. I tried to get the pot out and was attacked by ants.

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
I think I have finally come up with a garden name for this 'Katsuragawa Beni' seedling dated 2008 - "Maryland Longhorns".

That double bract structure seems consistent on the scapes.

Re: Seedling Flowers out of Art Wrede's Collection
I was thinking this one was not going to flower this season but today I found scapes coming along. This is Art Wrede's #56.
I had lost track of this pot -

And the scapes of #56 starting to slither their way out of the leaves, reminiscent of Snake Charmer:
