I. virginica shrevei 'Dottie's Double' and cristata 'Dick Redfield'
are wild-type 6-fall doubles. The former was collected wild in Ohio, I
believe? The double TB 'Rhythm' has a wild-type look. There are plenty
of 6-fall siberian cultivars, as well as rose-flowered types, though
the names escape me.
Sorry, but I have no good photos to offer.
