SOURCE OF STRENGTHTET 23416 (Joy Came Down x sdlg) 6.5", 27" (range of 24-33"), 3-way branching (range of 3-6), 17 buds (range of 11-27), instant rebloom on almost 100% outside in MN except in one super drought year where there was none, M, Sev (but almost dormant), CMO, EMO. Stats listed are an average over the years and are location dependent. Its best year was in 2026, where the outside lineouts in a sunny well-watered location averaged 5-way branching with 20 buds and 100% instant rebloom. Pinkish red (sometimes dark pink and often a bitone - see pics), icy pale gray lavender eye and edge plus ivory, green throat. Good form, wide segments, good color, good foliage, good rain resistance. Not a super-fast increaser. Fertile both ways with easy pollen and only easy to set on in moderate temps. Makes beautiful red kids with ruffles and chalky eyes (see pics!). Lined out outside because of its almost being a dormant, so it will be sent late May/early June
