From Huben's Wiki

MH0965D (Huben nr) 40 EM 3, Yellow Self, Dor Dip

Description

This is what dark scapes and buds can be. One of the darkest things I've bred. Carries melon. The graceful scapes have 4 branches and 12 buds.

The flowers are a rather plain, yellow with a little ruffling, but the contrast with the scapes is superb.

Very black scapes, hideous terracotta color.

(MH0466A * From Darkness Comes Light)
An enormous breakthrough in dark scape breeding! This first dark-scaped melon has entirely dark scapes, 4 branches and 27 buds, long branches, and a strong red stripe on sepal reverse. The flowers are not fancy, but they are a distinctively colored light melon with cream tints, yellow green throat and yellow and green veins. I've used this one very heavily in my breeding program.

An F1 between dark scapes and white. It's neither, but throws dark scapes and melon.

Gold Self. Tall and Small. Minute, species-like spatulate flowers on tall, well-branched scapes. Extraordinary breeder.

Early And Often (Huben 2001) 26 E Re 4, Peach Polychrome, Dor Dip Ext Fra Noc
(Sunny Honey * Sobek 94.12)
Honorable Mention award 2006! At last: a northern rebloomer that isn't yellow or gold. The heart of my breeding program, producing a great diversity of seedlings, many of them rebloomers. Very rapid increase. Tested and found highly rust resistant (a character passed to most of its kids.) Early And Often was my first introduction, and has lived up to its promise as a continuous rebloomer; it blooms non stop from early July until frost. Some growers report as many as seven sets of scapes per season. Unlike other diploid rebloomers, it is a color clarifier and readily gives up the melon tones in seedlings.
