That is notched rather than laciniated by ADS standards. ![]() ![]() Higher temperatures tend to make for deeper splits, so the classification may depend on the conditions at the time it was evaluated. Here is an extreme example: Piedmont Rebel. The first shot, by Clear Creek here on cubits, shows a bloom with barely split tips. I couldn't figure out why it was listed by the ADS as laciniated, until I found this photo from someone in Tennessee. ![]() ![]() |
