I have noticed that as KSS sold out and closed last year that some people are getting plants that are not true to name. I too bought what I thought was Silver Dawn, with the tag attached.

Imagine my surprise this spring when the plant grew and put up 2 buds. One was a bud bust, but the second gave me a beautiful bloom. Silver Dawn should be a single and can be either pink, yellow, or white. Great plant.
This is what I got. The bud was yellowish before it opened.

What do all the wise ones more experienced than me about what it might be? My suspicion is either Vanilla Schnapps or Pastelegance. Anyone who grows these two help me out here. And those worried about a mislabel remember it could possibly be to your benefit.
