thanks for all the responses.
the only thing that made me question the accuracy of the plant was that the leaves, also, are not glossy. While it might eventually pucker (and I do love some of the responses) I would think it would start out glossy.
also, when I looked at a previous order from this nursery I realized that the Black Coral that I ordered in Sept '14 may be a little suspect as well. I ordered another one from a different vendor, but finding that my online purchases in general from multiple venders produce about 50% satisfaction - often I am sent the wrong plant. :/
