*MOVING ALL OVER
*MOVING ALL OVER (Stamile,P.) TET868-B
[(Star Of India x Tetra Green Widow) X (Star Of India x Tetra Green Widow)]
30 EERe. fr. emo. Dor. 11 (12 ¾ wingspan) x 1 ¼ x 1 1/16.
3 way branching. 15-18 buds. The name came as I was showing the bloom
to Grace and she exclaimed, Oh, its moving all over! A very surprising
dormant from an F2 cross of two evergreen parents MOVING ALL OVER should
be happy North and South. A superb EE here with strong rebloom MOVING
ALL OVER demonstrates what I love to see in spiders and unusual forms
the twisting which gives the flower a sense of motion that the full forms
with their formal appearance cannot have. Even a lot of true spiders
can have a stiffness and static nature to their blooms. Strong upright
scapes on MOVING ALL OVER have never fallen over or even leaned for me.
At a minimum ratio of 4.0 MOVING ALL OVER is our first tetraploid
spider introduction. If you measure the narrowest petal rather than
the longest (not allowed by the rules) MOVING ALL OVER measures a full
5.3 ratio! Stretched out MOVING ALL OVER measures almost 13 and
this from two 7-8 flowers the power of having an induced parent on
both sides! The GREEN WIDOW influence is seen in the deep green lacquered
throat. The twisted and pinched crispata form came from the pollen
parent which twisted and pinched despite coming from two beautiful but
fairly formal flowers. Superb and fertile both ways
