Cheryl, In looking through tons of photos of Phals novelties, I would have to agree with Sandy. These crosses have been made and remade so many times and with so many different clones there is a really huge variation in them. Add to that the cloning variations you get with the Golden Poeker types and it just boggles the mind.
Cheryl, you've got a really pretty flower, no matter what the name! If it were me, I'd stick with the one it came with.
As for what the nursery owner told you, Sandy. I think I would take it with a small pinch of salt. It could be true in some cases, but I think its impossible to make blanket statements like that. (And the nursery does have a vested interest in getting people to buy from them rather than from anywhere else.....)
