none of mine came with names what they do is have a large mother plant the take a branch and cut maybe 20 pieces and use all of those to go in to 20 caudexs. as long as the graft grows from there up you have the purple bloom if it starts ti grow from the caudex it will be a different plant altogether. some times when the first color or flower is found one of a kind they separate that and that is there mother they maybe cross pollinate flowers 5-10 times to get the flowers they really want. then they have a new flower and wala a new flower like they are working real hard on yellow combos. it is amazing how they do it.
