*Joy of My Heart
*JOY OF MY HEART (Pierce G.) 225
((Over The Mountain x Going Big Time) x Picasso’s Intrigue) TET, SEV,
EMre, 35” high, 6.5” flower, 5 way branching, 35 buds. Mind
blowingly bold.
Wow and almost a decade later, after working on “this look”, I feel as
though we hit the jackpot!!! A success that I could only have
dreamed of. The Garden name on #225 was Dark Phantom,
unfortunately already taken. I have done my best to improve this
line year after year, and #225 is the absolute pinnacle. The Best
/ The Last / And… The Most Beautiful. Before 2007 I believe this
look did not exist. There were dark eyes with edges like the
lovely Pirates Patch, or one of this beauties grandparents Midnight
Amulet. But no double edges.
JOY OF MY HEART looks like Midnight Amulet after swallowing a
tire whole, then being hit by lightning. Bottom line is, I
dreamed and took a chance, worked hard and got lucky. We all have
such dreams, and mine continue. Karen and I are so happy to be
sharing our journey with you. JOY
OF MY HEART is quite large for a double edge. The petals
are wide and overlapped with the edge being quite thick. I will
confidently say she is “State of the Art”; the picture is spot
on. Keep in mind that Born to be Wild is pretty and a leap of new
directions but the color saturation was a one hit. Now… you have
“that look” double dosed at least 4 more times in her pedigree. I hope
you have noticed I am taking my pictures outside in the garden – out in
the sun. Daylily pictures can look much better in filtered light
or a greenhouse. So now, outside… where what you see is what you
will get. This is the last double edge for now as it’s not easy
making them that much better!
Fertile both ways and priced to share. Enjoy…
