Richard and Walter,
It the types mentioned here that I was saying we should boycott. I am
not referring to those who make an occasional mistake. One time, when I
ordered some Daylilies, after the order arrived, I got another box some
weeks later. In it was another plant and a letter. The letter stated that
they had discovered that they had sent the wrong plant to me and about 40
others. The plant enclosed was the correct one. That place went to great
lengths to uphold their reputation. This is not the type of place we
should boycott.
The ones we should are those that ignore messages telling them that
something is misnamed and continue to sell the misnamed plants year after
year.
