 Whip City X's and O's, Jones-L., '22
$ 150.00 Double Fan
​

Tetraploid Dormant, 46 inches, EM, 10 inch flower (12 inch wingspan)
Spider (4.33 to 1 Ratio) 6.5 inch petal length divided by 1.5 petal width.
 
If you are into hybridizing for Spiders and Unusual Forms, this is the Introduction for you.

The color is a dusty rose pink with darker veining.  A large chartreuse green throat deepens to a darker chartreuse green heart.  There is 3 way branching with a 14 bud count.  Pod and pollen fertile.  The fragrance is pleasant.
  
Seedling # 11-1195 (Whip City Hot Hot Hot X Whammer Jammer)​
 
What makes this Spider stand out is its ability to set pod in a garden setting, and giving many seeds that are fertile.  An example would be the cross I made using ‘Whip City Sailing at Sunset’ as the pollen parent gave me 27 seeds with 26 germinating.

Here are a few seedlings from that cross.

Another cross gave me 23 seeds with 21 seeds germinating using ‘Whip City Walks on Air’, as the pollen parent.  This cross has produced, I believe a Spider.

Seedling # 20-604
The ruler is 12 inches long.  I believe this will measure a Spider.
 
A third cross produced 13 seeds and 11 germinated.

Here are a few seedlings that bloomed from that cross.

The remainder of the crosses produced a normal amount of seeds for a cross.
 
As you can see, ‘Whip City X’s and O’s’ can give up its color for the pollen parent, but it is really trying to produce Spiders.    
 
This introduction, ‘Whip City X’s and O’s’, is definitely pod and pollen fertile, without the aid of a shade cloth or a greenhouse. As a hybridizer, this introduction is well worth the investment, if you are working with Spiders or Unusual Forms.
