Just when you thought it was safe to go back to eBay and buy plants I find another "mis-labeled" listing. Hmmm? Same grower as before. Does this constitute a trend?
Here's Rob's Boolaroo as pictured on the hybridizer's website:
And here is Rob's Boolaroo (at least one eBay sellers' version of it). Seriously, does this even look like a trailer? You be the judge! Personally, I'd be asking for a refund.

As a long-time grower of violets (since the early 70s), I also couldn't help but notice that there are quite a few mislabeled and misidentified violets regularly offered and sold on eBay and by one commercial grower (as an aside, there are also misidentified plants featured on FC2 (First Class 2) and the AVSA website). I don't buy them (letting the sellers know something's not right usually falls on deaf ears), but enough buyers think they're getting the "right" plants. Too bad.
