From Korth: "Medium lavender petals with large blue lavender eye with purple outline, wide, blue lavender edge lined with purple, green throat, pale lavender center on sepals rimmed with purple. Well of Salvation x ((Mary Vertz x (Blue Ambition x Healing Waters) x Sign of Jonah) – Seedling 6-4 Newness of Life was special from its maiden bloom in 2020. It was the “bluest” flower we had seen in the garden, and we immediately spread pollen on everything we could. Over the years, the flowers were consistently beautiful, and Newness of Life has been a key genetic piece in our hybridizing program. We have shown pictures of seedling 6-4 (now Newness of Life) in many presentations and on Facebook for several years so this plant and its beauty is no secret. As a garden plant, Newness of Life is outstanding – scapes and buds are good but the flowers are nearly perfect every bloom and we look forward to seeing the blooms every day in bloom season. We have not allowed our garden clump of Newness of Life to exceed 4 fans in an effort to propagate it rapidly. I can envision a mature clump of Newness of Life being a showstopper in the garden with many perfect blossoms displayed at the same time. As a hybridizing plant, Newness of Life excels in being both pod and pollen fertile. In 2025, we are collecting large pods from Newness of Life and are eager to see the results. In 2020, we took the first blooms of Newness of Life and spread pollen to more mature plants. We have several potential introductions from those initial crosses and have seen many more fine seedlings in subsequent years. In most cases, Newness of Life will produce seedlings that exceed the parents in beauty and plant habit. Going back to grandparent Sign of Jonah, Newness of Life shows pale lavender or white patches on the sepals. This is a showy trait, and it is passed on from Newness of Life to its offspring. Seedling 502-12 is an offspring of Newness of Life, and it is one of the most unique seedlings we have seen with a large white patch on the sepal along with a white edge on the sepal."
