Plant centre blunder

PierisMyosotis15138 Every now and then, here on the Transatlantic Plantsman blog, I highlight a mail order nursery which illustrates its plants with pictures which are – how shall we say – unrealistic… Check out one of them.

Now here’s a bold piece of signage from the Royal Horticultural Society plant centre at Wisley in Surrey.

The sign says the bench is loaded with a lovely perennial forget-me-not called Myosotis My Oh My (‘Myomark’). In fact the bench is bursting with (some very appealing)… Pieris. Slightly disconcerting that no one seems to have noticed this.
