Here is a list of the dormants I grow here near Augusta: (note: all are tets)
Alan Lane Agin (Agin) hybridized in the South
Bicolor Beautiful (Carpenter) hybridized in the South
Bloodrayne (Benz) got it late last year, but it is up and growing
Cast Your Crown (Korth) it has done very well here
Coronation Day (Emmerich) has struggled, but it is still living
Dragon Slayer (Polston) it struggled its first two years, since then its fine
Forestlake Ragamuffin (Harding) does very well
Heavenly Pink Fang (Gossard) has good and not so good years
Puffer Fish (Gossard) started with a very small plant and it has struggled
Ruffled Strawberry Parfait (Reckamp) more poor years than good ones
Sunrise Sunset Beautiful (Carpenter) hybridized in the South
Susan Ruoff (Bachman) grows well
Vampire's Kiss (Gossard) grows OK but hasn't increased much
Wren's Song (Stamile) did well on its first year & is breaking ground now
in the past I have grown:
Aftershock (Benz) grew well
Cactus Blossom (Gossard) Grew well first year, died of crown rot second year
Evening Sparkle (Benz) grew well
Mary Lena (JA Rice) Grew very well
Rosy Spiketail (Gossard) grew well
Ruckus ((JA Rice) Grew well
Shabby Chic (Farmer-Stegall) grew well
See Me-Feel Me-Touch Me (Holmes) grew very well
Upon This Rock (Korth) Lived and grew well for 3 years, then died
I have also been hybridizing with many of these plants and have about 20% of my seedlings that are dormant - some crossed with EV or SEV, but others are dormant-dormant crosses. I don't seem to have any higher death rate with the dormant seedlings than I do with others. In fact, we do have a few winter nights that reach low 20's or below, and the dormants are up and growing without a problem while some of the 'green' ones struggle after being frozen back - but by April, they've caught up.
