plants that turn out to have been mislabeled
I too received Turks' Caps (from a generally reliable US company.) My story has
a happier ending. The first lily that bloomed in a grouping of 3 was orange, spotted--but definitely not a Turk's Cap. I called the company and they offered a full refund. I was about to take it when I recalled I still had two lilies to go. I said if the other two were OK, I wouldn't mind having one slightly different. They duly blossomed, last year and this, into turbans as beautiful as anything you will see in the Shah-nameh. I'm sorry to hear you had such a bad experience. My whole three years of gardening on my own has led to this conclusion: buy as local as possible, and buy from specialists--people who offer only bulbs, only day lilies, etc. It seems to bring better results, and they usually include quite detailed information on how to get the best results.
