I finally got around to asking my dad about this. He says that particular
photo in the catalog is very accurate and true to color (at least as it
grows in Vancouver, WA). If your soil is more acidic than ours, then you
may get slightly darker colors, but it should not look bland, and it should
have the same type of patterning and beard, etc.

Since you ordered it from someone other than my dad (ahem), you will have
to contact them for a replacement. :-)
