Pierce had this to say about HGR: "HAPPY GO RUFFLES is a vibrant True Red with wide petals and extreme ruffling, even Angel Wings colored in Gold, Yellow, and White. With HAPPY’S Wide Petals & big edging, she still does not hang-up. I have so many cover shots of this large and amazing red flower. She sits on a tremendous set of scapes, is easily pod fertile, and honestly too good of a parent! Fertile both ways." Evergreen foliage. Very fragrant. Pix from hybridizer.

From Korth: "Lavender petals with lavender blue eye and edge. Pinewood Miracle Worker was one of our most popular cultivars when introduced in 2024. Healer of Nations is the first (of many) introduction to come from Pinewood Miracle Worker. Healer of Nations is similar in color but has wider petals and a larger, more ruffled edge. The edge has 3 colors, going from purple to lavender to cream on the outside. As a garden plant, it is a standout. Extremely vigorous, this is the first tetraploid to be introduced from the 2020 bloom season. Obviously hardy here due to its rapid increase, it should grow well in a variety of climates. Blooms open well and the bud count is good for our northern climate. As a breeder, Healer of Nations is easily pod and pollen fertile. We had some initial success using pollen from its first bloom season, but 2024 was an eye-opener. 17 seedlings were selected for further evaluation (the most of any pod parent) with Healer of Nations as the pod parent. The seedlings were unique and beautiful with many having been noted as having excellent scapes in year one. We never saw Healer of Nations or its seedlings display any extra petal tissue. Even with Double Blessing as a parent, Healer of Nations does not seem to pass on any traits for those breeding doubles. However, if you are breeding for lavenders and blue with dormant foliage, Healer of Nations will be excellent." Dormant. 22 buds. Pix from Korth.
