picture from their catalogue- obviously enhanced color- it will be funny to see what color all these flowers are when they bloom :) i'm thinking less vivid- oh well, marketing pawn again- I am a true American

ok, actually, after looking up the orange things i got to balance this, it should be ok- in the sun they will be faded, overcast days they will glow- it will be fine
