Dear All;
I still disagree and can send anyone a jpeg showing foliage and
inflorescence of all three that sure does NOT  look alike  (Jim yours is =in
transit already)....but still open to suggestions. It may be we are growi=ng
different plants, but I got my atropurpurea from Tony A. , but the 2 othe=rs
came from China directly.
Does anyone propagate 'Polly Spout". I love to get a source.

best            Jim W.
