They change the list of ones that they sell regularly. Seems like at least, yearly, but sometimes more often. The list you just posted isn't the same as when I was looking.

Without a doubt, their Dream Souffle is really Dublin Elaine. That is the one I bought. I actually got it to use for hybridizing, but when I checked the AHS and database here, there was no Dream Souffle. That is what got me looking into it further. I posted a picture of mine, and everyone said it was Dublin Elaine. But, that was a couple of years after I bought it, and I refused to use it for hybridizing until I learned the real name. Back then, I was doing a lot of research on their plants, trying to figure out which ones had the real name on them, and very few did. This was maybe 5 or 6 years ago. I would still never ever buy a plant from them, because of this. I view it as theft. If they want to put their own name on a plant, they need to do all of the hybridizing work themselves. There is no mention that I can find of the actual name of these plants attached to any of them, where they have put their own name on them! It is just very wrong to do this.
