InfoIn the running to be the best sport of 'Paul's Glory', this beauty displays wide, dark green margins and a bright gold enter.
With leaves that are thicker than 'Paul's Glory', 'Pride and Joy' grows faster and larger, eventually becoming an outstanding specimen. Probably a tetraploid.
Don has grown this plant for nearly 15 years.
