clumps

A while back Carol Warner tried to institute a classification that would identify the leaf patterns as straight standers and gentle curvers and outright floppers.  I don't know if that continues but it was very helpful to me at the time since I'd been trying for years to get some floppers to stand up and had assumed my horticulture was at fault. 

I'm not looking for a similar standard but would like to know if there is a listing anywhere of which sibs clump so tightly they practically strangle themselves, like Super Ego, which sprawl and are therefore easy to divide, like Dance Ballerina Dance, and which just aren't very vigorous.  In the latter category I'm finding McEwen's Silver Edge, Marshmallow Frosting, and Dreaming Orange -- though the latter, which has sulked for 5 years for me, was gorgeous last and this spring in spite of the voles....sigh.....so maybe it is my horticulture.

Thanks all,
