I would like to see examples of what you consider true purple vs. ones that aren't. I think that's one of those things where you can ask 4 different people and get 6 different thoughts on it. Also, a comment, I find for truer purple it's a good idea to place them where they can get about three hours of shade, especially morning shade. It cuts back on their performance, but you get it back in truer purple in the shade, I feel.
