Sigh.

I have a gardening book from the 1940s, and even way back then, they warned about the perfidy and lack of integrity of "nurserymen".

This Grumpy Old Man thinks that the level of integrity in business (and politics) has been dropping like a rock for some decades, but it seems that labeling plants honestly or informatively has been "optional" for at least 70 years.

Caveat emptor!

I.e. "Good luck, Jack!"
