I've received only a few mislabeled roses from Sequoia, Pickering, Vintage Gardens, and Roses Unlimited, but many of the roses I bought from Rogue Valley and Hortico were mislabeled. The worst offender, though, was Heirloom. Half (exactly 50%, in fact!) of the roses I ordered from Heirloom over the years were mislabeled. The worst thing about Heirloom was that they were selling the wrong rose to everyone. It wasn't just a case of grabbing the wrong rose to put in the shipping box. They were growing Albertine and selling it as Gloire de Dijon, for example, and everyone who ordered Buck's September Song, an apricot blend, received a pink rose instead.
