Hilarious! No, freak of nature is not on the registration form. Sculpted cristates are a fun form, full of surprises.

Thanks Justine! I haven't measured the second sdlg but I would guess between 6 & 7 inches. It's from a cross of Feel the Thunder X (Sailing with Captain Kidd x Impossible Dreamer). The first and third sdlgs are closer to 4 inches. I agree, the last one is pretty cool looking. It's from a cross of Gimme that Wink X (an old relief form sdlg x Tet. Texas Feathered Fancy). I work with dips too, but find the tets have more variation in the shape of the cristation, maybe because they come from crosses with the pleated and relief forms, which makes the whole hybridizing process of Sculpted forms exciting.
