Hi, I sorted out the seeds from a box of Bird and Butterfly mixed seeds so I could plant them separately. I could identify some seeds, but the unknown ones I labeled A, B, C, etc.

This one is awesome! but I have no clue what it is. One plant has pink flowers, and the plant next to it has white ones.

That's it! Thank you, saltcedar! Are there names for the two varieties - pink, and white?

White one resembles 'Mont Blanc' to me. No idea on the other one.

I suspect it is 'Silver Cup'. I've grown it, and can't for the life of me figure out why a pink flower has "silver" in the name. I always have to look it up, because I can only remember "the flower with a name that makes no sense to me."
