Ok, I'll add that to the nursery list. (Thanks, I think....) But since I already ordered the two plants from Santa Rosa, I guess I am stuck with them.

(Have you found Romence Gardens to be reliable in the sense of not mixing up varieties? I don't suppose it would hurt to go check that link out....or would it? )

...

Edited to add: Just checked out Romence... they have the 'Arizona Apricot' but not the 'Oranges & Lemons'. I think I will dig out the 'Arizona Apricot' that I have, and put it elsewhere in the garden, and backfill (with some more digging) with the two smaller incoming 'Oranges & Lemons'; that way I will have one nice 3-plant group next to the patio. When 'Arizona Apricot' gets planted (it will probably overwinter in a pot again, sigh) I can come back online and order companions for it then.

You did good, Romance Gardens does not have the Oranges and Lemons just Arizona Apricot and the Redish one, I forgot the name but they are short and I like that. I had O&L last year and they were floppy.
I have read good reviews on Watchdog about RG, are you familiar with Watchdog? I like looking around and you can add stuff to your favorites by clicking on the heart.
Anyway you should have time to get some good roots going on O&L since you already ordered them. I just blew my budget out of the water because I ordered 26 more daylilies, Maryott's with the darn BOGO's. I love it though!
Here are my Coneflowers from Romance.
