These new forms/terms will be included in the updated AHS exhibition judges training presentation which is great so judges will know how to judge these new forms.
Fred, I hope you sent in your photos when they asked for photos of these forms on the Robin.

Jan, if you go to the AHS dictionary, all the terms are there along with photos as examples. http://www.daylilies.org/ahs_d...
If you click on the sculpted or sculpting you will see examples of all 3 together and if you click on each term individually they have other photos as examples.
The cristate photo of Jack Carpenter's "Texas Feathered Fancy" is what is considered by some to be bearded even though that term is not included in the AHS dictionary (Jack called it feathering). Michael Best has been trying to get that term included since 2005 or earlier to reflect his "Michael's Sword" He has a section on his website that talkes about this http://rainbowhilldaylilyfarm....

Curt Hanson has a lot of the sculpted forms (8 pages in the AHS data base) registered. Only one is criststed, the rest are pleated or relief.

Fred, I went and looked on the AHS advanced search for sculpted forms. There are quite a few earlier ones listed. I thought these were new terms that were added in 2010 or were they just revised ( crested changed to cristate) Are they going back and changing the forms on the older ones to reflect the true form it should have been listed as?


I have seen the extra tissue on some of the daylilies I grow and just passed it off as the bloom trying to double. I will have to keep a closer look out this year and see which ones do it. I think most were on rebloom though. Just like I have a seedling from Lyle that is a single, but every rebloom doubled. Mother nature having fun with us Big Grin
