From seed I purchased in 2010, this cute little flower is produced on fairly short scapes above a very rust resistant plant with very nice color and patterning and a nicely opened, somewhat flat flower. Jane Jets On went through all five years of my rust screening, scoring A+ each year. Fertile both ways, with a subtle eye pattern, lighter edging to the petals, and in a bright grouping of pastel pink, lavender and gray colors, this should be a very useful plant for breeding for rust resistance along with bright colors and patterns at the dip level. I have produced a large number of seedlings out of this very pod fertile plant and she produces an above average number of rust resistant seedlings. Thrips resistance is only moderate. Her seedlings also tend to have attractive flowers, but their scapes tend to be on the shorter side, which I know some people like. She is being introduced because she has been consistent for a decade, is very fertile and was screened for rust resistance for 5 years and shows breeding value for the trait.
