| TERRIBLE SWIFT SWORD TET 15303 {Heartbeat of Heaven x [(Chance Encounter x Shaka Zulu) x sib of Heartbeat of Heaven]}, 7” (range of 6-7”), 20”, average of 3-4 way branching (range of 3-5), 17 buds (range of 13-20), Sev, M, Re (and Minnesota instant rebloom on almost all fans every year), fr. Dark clear purple with lighter lavender purple watermark; white very sharky edge; yellow to green throat. Fabulous foliage and no issues at all in 2012 despite the Midwest “malaise” where it seemed like almost everything turned yellow or lost a lot of foliage or scapes. A “front of the border plant”. Would like it to be several inches taller, but looks fine in the garden, and breeds wonderful and much taller kids with gorgeous purple color (that obviously goes back to Shaka Zulu). CLICK HERE to see pictures of some of the kids and CLICK HERE to see a couple of the grandkids. Fertile both ways.
