Oh...Blackout or Blacky

Its 'Blackout' GT, i have the same one!!

Great. Thank you. I know they are similar and we grew the other at work, thus the confusion. First of many, they have given a great show and should be hardy to bloom next year.

I thought that I would have some of these but they turned out pink! Even more disappointed now that I've seen your photo!

One of the worst of disappointments is a bulb coming up the wrong color! These are very dark and rich. I hope you can find some and have them come true. :-)

I bought them as loose bulbs - clearly some bored little brat being dragged around the garden centre by their parents amused itself by swapping the bulbs from box to box!!
I'll only buy packaged bulbs in future.

Boxes I can understand. We ordered 50 each of a pink and a salmon dwarf lily, and got 100 salmon dwarf lillies at the nursery and they all came up the same salmon color. I've got two more hosta that were supposed to be lily of the valley even. I think we just find a good supplier, and hope......lol.
