The three I've noticed in my garden that have blooms bunched together a bit too much for my taste are:

ALPINE HARMONY

GLAMAZON

But I'm not interested in exhibition stalks, just beautiful flowers, so it's OK with me. I didn't know about show stalks until I went to the TBIS meeting in Salem a couple of years ago, and at Keith Keppel's someone told me he didn't care for the spacing on the stalks of some of the Blyth varieties for that reason; so now it's something I notice. The guys at Mid-America often put "Show stalks!" in their descriptions for the exhibitors, which I think is helpful.
