O K Thats why I go to a Plant File or database of some kind.Websites images are sometimes manipulated so one never knows the true color.
Database plants are photoed in a real garden setting and give a better idea as to color when in mine.
I believe Bettys Nancys Lace was taken in shade.Mine is in more light.Also soil is a factor.
Color is important to me so I even go asfar as Googling a plant to see how the color varies if there are more than three images of the same plant.I never trust the website version.
I have a Mid America imahe of Here we Go and the actual bloom in my garden is much more beautiful
