Bought as 'cupid' which should be a lighter pink. @kez001uk do they lighten or have I been sent the wrong bare root?

Either is possible, but beware retouched ad photos too!

@DeborahBanks definitely the wrong root. They are a lot lighter than this even at their darkest. I’m sorry 😔

@DeborahBanks hope they send you a replacement. They’re usually good with that but a shame you’ll have to wait another year for flowers 😔

@pelly I went looking for mine after seeing your post. I've found 1 so far 😊 this is good news as I seem to manage to keep killing them.

This is going in a pot today, I do like a plant that is trying hard in the bag, shows determination i think. I have 4 days off ahead of me 😊 so me and my lingering cold and cough are heading outside to be productive. Happy Thursday everyone, have a wonderful day.

Bonus @ublaszko. I hope so too @richard.spicer.7906. I really went for a white but felt sorry for this trying it's best to grow. I will pick up a white too soon.
