Davi said:The Keast introduction, STARCHED PETTICOATS, is a significant step forward in hybridizing for Tet cristates IMHO. It is the only one (that I know of) that has dormant plant habit from a northern hybridizing program.... It also represents a new color as most Tet cristates to date have been stuck in the same color range of gold/melon/polychrome.


This is another instance where the NGA database will help you research Sculpted cristate forms. When you go to the daylily database at the top you will see a box for Search and Browse Dayliles. In the box is a Search By Characteristics link, click it. There you will be able to select the characteristics you are looking for. Be sure to hit the Search button after making your selections. Currently there are 17 dormant, Tet, Sculpted cristate cultivars in a variety of colors and 44 semi-evergreen also in a variety of colors that come up in a search of the database. Many of these are from northern hybridizers and/or are hardy in zone 4.

If you are unsure about where a hybridizer might be located Charlotte's Hybridizer's Corner is a great place to find hybridizer websites.
