Let me be the first to tell you that EA plant labels are quite often incorrect ... well, the tags are correct but the tags end up on the wrong plants. A couple of years ago I was in our Home Depot Garden center and at checkout I mentioned to the cashier that I noticed many of the house plants with incorrect name tags. She said it just so happened a lady from the vendor was there and called her over. I told her what I'd found and she asked if I would mind showing her. She was very apologetic and began pulling tags out of the soil of many, many plants in that section. She found even more than I had and she told me that she thought it was probably due to the fact that some of the nursery workers were non-english speaking and they just placed labels in pots at random. I told her that I know sometimes customers will pull a tag to read it too and not put it back in the correct pot but she said that she thought every single plant that had just been delivered to that HD was mis-tagged.
