Cheyenne is in the same class, with splits that are less deep.   Compare to a couple of my seedlings from last year. The florets are mostly flat, with shallow splits. 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.   |
