Joey® awarded with Glass Tulip 2012 by FloraHolland
 
Noordwijk, Netherlands, January 2012. Each year the best of the best flower novelties contend for the most sought after „Glass Tulip“ of FloraHolland. Ptilotus exaltatus Joey®, world novelty of the German seed breeder Benary, wins the „Glass Tulip“ award in the category of bedding plants. The jury found Ptilotus exaltatus Joey® to be truly innovative, soft and caressable. Whether or not it would be able to stand up to rain was fully put to the test. Its loose panicle fits the current trend well. C. & M. Kester, an innovative dutch grower, presented Joey® to the jury as an avant-garde bedding plant for the endconsumer.      

Ptilotus exaltatus Joey® is a native to central Australia. This is why it is extremely tolerant of heat and drought as well as being able to adapt very well to other conditions. Benary's  Joey® is truly a breeding breakthrough. The market has nothing of its kind to offer in this genus.

The „Glass Tulip“ so to say the Oscar of the European Horticultural Industry
Each year, the FloraHolland flower auction FloraHolland presents this award to the most successful introduction to the market in the categories cut flowers, houseplants, garden plants and sales concepts. The four Glass Tulip awards were presented at a festive gathering, where television personality and jury chairman Rob Verlinden had the honor of announcing the winners.
