*NANCY BILLINGSLEA (Stamile, P.) TET
1232-D [(San Ignacio x Ed Brown) X Tetra Grace Pierce] 30” EERe. Ev. fr.
emo. 7 ½” x 4” x3”. 6-way branching. 25-30 buds. NANCY BILLINGSLEA
is named for the wife of a friend and tireless worker for the American
Hemerocallis Society, Oliver Billingslea. Size counts!! And NANCY
BILLINGSLEA is easily the largest of the triumvirate of RUFFLED MASTERWORK,
SONGWRITER and NANCY BILLINGSLEA. In fact, with petals of 4” and early
flowers at 8” this is one of the largest of the hundreds of Tetra Grace
Pierce seedlings I have bloomed. Best of all NANCY BILLINGSLEA is
one of the most beautiful shades of pink. Anyone who knows me knows I am
very fussy about pink color. It is a remarkable achievement to bring size,
color, form and plant habit together in one flower. Simply gorgeous. Fertile
both ways.
