Does this look red to you??

Does this look red to you??

Another misnamed purchase. I have looked everywhere for 'Azurro', a dark red dwarf gladdie which I've had in the past and loved. I was delighted to find it at the Malvern Show. This is what has appeared, clearly not as advertised. Seems to be happening a lot to me! I think this is perfectly hideous... More wan lilac than it pictures.

Anget, I agree that it gets very annoying when a plant is not what it should have been. Although, unlike you, I rather like the shades to it!

Sorry you’re disappointed Ange, but this colour is fine by me!

Ha ha, I see I am in a minority of one. No matter, I'll learn to live with it!

Yes, Klahanie, they were a very beautiful dark red, a gorgeous colour beside green, and not too tall.

So sorry it was not what you were hoping for but I do like it too.
I wonder why they sold you the wrong ones?

They were from open boxes so I suspect they'd put the wrong loose label on them, Chris. That must mean another box was wrong too.
