I see the photo on the cover of the packet has been changed to show pink and white flowers. The one I bought (and clearly the one the other reviewer bought) showed whites and blues. I found these in mid-summer, too late to grow for sale in my greenhouse, and now I am glad that I didn’t offer them to customers. I like pink and white seashell cosmos;I really do. But when you have a photo of blue ones, you should have blue ones. It turns out blue ones don’t exist. You probably made a lot of sales on that, but now we know better. That was shameful.
