On this theme of wrong plants being sent, I had 3 mistaken plants sent to me in the Spring of 2012. Never had this problem before. Of course, I didn't know they were mistakes until they bloomed this summer 2013, a whole year later. I emailed the hybridizers and all 3 plants have been replaced with the correct plants in the last 2 weeks, and planted immediately in the garden. These are the top hybridizers in the country, and the plants were expensive. In one instance, the hybridizer who sent me 2 incorrect plants, sent me a bonus plant of one of his 2012 intros. I was thrilled with his choice.
It is frustrating when mistakes occur because for me planting in the Fall means I have a 50/50 chance that the plants will bloom next Summer! That means I may have to wait to see the plant bloom in my case 3 yrs after I originally purchased it on the LA, if they don't bloom next Summer.
In my case, all the hybridizers made good on there mistakes. I can understand how this happens when in the Spring the hybridizers are sending out hundreds of plants. Murphy's Law. I just have never had this happen to me. However, 'all's well, that ends well'. I would order again from both these hybridizers in a heart beat. Class act.
