I don't know… at first I thought the huge plant was pretty cool --- but then I kept moving other plants away from it. And the next year, moving more plants away as the clump grew larger and larger. It's like the Arnold Schwarzenegger of plants. Now, it takes up space of a lot of "regular" tetraploids.

Notify Ground Crew has tall scapes, but reasonable sized plants under it.

I did spend some time looking through my photos to see if I had an image of the foliage of the seedling, out of bloom, showing it "looming" over the plants around it -- but I could not find one. It sticks out like a "sore thumb" when there are no scapes or blooms in the garden. That's one reason I thought I should not name it. The number of scapes and blooms is rather amazing, but the foliage is -- well -- not very impressive to me.
