sometimes there are crested offsets on a named cultivar;

but often this crested offsets are not stable; they come back to the normal form or produce only normal offsets themselves;

this crested offsets should not get an own entry to the database or an own name because you can't increase;

when crested offsets were seperated and selected there might be some few stable which produce crested offsets themselves; then it is a good idea to add an entry to the database with the name S. 'name crested' - it should take the breeder-informations of the normal form;

it is no good idea to give them an own name because it may turn back to normal even after years;

f.e. S. 'Bedivere' often produce crested offsets; I've seperated a lot of them and only a few increases crested; after 4 years of screening now there are some stable ones:







I think for S. 'Bedivere crested' it is reasonable to create a database-entry !?
