Last year, I had the ugliest planters!
It was because I went by the catalogue descriptions of the plant colours.
A lime bicolour petunia turned out to be magenta with odd blotches of yellow green.
Another petunia described as white with salmon, turned out to be salmon red with flecks of white.
Blue flowers often turn out to be mauve or purple, and the word salmon means different things to different people.
Thanks for a great article!
