Default Incorrect name tags on nursery plants

G'day
Today while browsing through a local nursery I noticed a Frangipani that
carried a ticket stating it was a red variety (can't think of the
variety now, sorry!) and a photo of amazing dark red blooms. Nothing
strange about that, until you looked at the blooms on the plant and they
were the regular white with yellow centre blooms.

I know I've been caught by incorrect tagging in the past and these days
try to only buy a plant that is actually in bloom. I know mistakes
can happen but you'd think the nursery person would notice this and
change the label? This tree wasn't cheap either!
