I got seeds labeled 'Black Moon' vinca in a big seed swap here in Nov. 2017. I thought they'd be a novelty color to try so I planted them in an orange hanging basket on my porch. They grew well but when the flowers opened they were not dark 'Black Moon' but, I think, 'Cora Punch' pink. They are blooming beautifully, but they really clash with that orange pot I thought 'Black Moon' would have looked wonderful in. I don't know whether the seeds were mislabeled or cross pollinated, but my disappointment was tempered by these very large fuchsia-pink beauties. Now I don't have the heart to disturb them by removing them from that glaring orange pot!
