Why people hunt it
Clearview Daniel, a 2013 Richard Parshall introduction, won the Stanley Johnson Medal in 2018 and ranks seventeenth on the Fab 50 for 2025. It proves the Clearview program is not just about giant semi-cactus: Daniel is a clean yellow ball, a form judged on geometric precision rather than size. For the grower who wants a Clearview name without growing a dinnerplate, this is the practical pick, a long-lasting cut flower with a medal behind it. The line moves through resellers now that the original farm is quiet.
Growing notes, including the hard parts
Clearview Daniel is a yellow ball, the form that flower farmers prize: a tight, spiraled globe that holds for a week and pumps out by the armful once the plant gets going. At three and a half to four and a half inches it is a workhorse cut size, not a centerpiece. Standard care, and balls are generally among the more forgiving forms to grow well. It shows the Clearview program's range, since most of the famous Clearview varieties are big semi-cactus, but Daniel is a ball, and a Stanley Johnson winner at that.
