So you're the one that put them out of business!!!!!!

There will be no Howard Johnsons on the US space station thanks to you. (If
they ever build it.)

Yeah. Why shoot the messenger?

The plants came mislabeled from the wholesaler. The local dealer has no
control over that.

Tsu Dho Nimh just like to carry on like a tantrum throwing prima-donna
queen so he can be thrown out of stores and be banned for life!!!! They
probably see Rambolina coming from miles away!!! Yo, where's the pansies?

You live in a city, don't you? You wouldn't burn your bridges like
that
in a smaller town. But you also would likely be able to talk to the
owner without having to resort to Rambo tactics to get their
attention.

"Teaching them a lesson" is very attractive sometimes. A kinder,
gentler approach ("why do all these different plants have the same
label?") may mark you as a knowledgable gardner, prospective good
customer, and even prod the business to be more careful about
labeling. Who knows? Maybe they came from the Plant Factory this way.
