Actually that might be it; I thought there was some white in it too, but that looks so close to what I remember maybe the white wasn't in there after all. I just poked around looking for Jolly Joker photos & I saw some other gorgeous varieties, like Cool Wave Morpho and Delta Premium Marina. Would be nice to get some of those.Yes, I DO sometimes start from seed. However, doing it from seed is a LITTLE harder, since the seedlings are VERY tiny and VERY delicate, too delicate to transplant. That basically means that the only way to grow them from seed is to basically scatter the seed over wherever you want the plants to grow, and hope for the best. So there is little control over exactly where the plants will show up, and you end up wasting a LOT of seed in thinning (which is not a great thing when you don't have that much seed to begin with and really want to maximize how many actually make plants).
There IS a pansy (or rather, a pansy series) called Jester, but the pictures don't seem to match. What you had sort of SOUNDS like Jolly Joker, but Jolly Joker doesn't have any white.
