This seems like the place to post this erratum. Prior to the Spring Plant Swap I offered what I thought I had sown as Digitalis ‘Candy Mountain’. Soon I realized that the ID was incorrect and thought I might have mixed my label with a Penstemon. Then it became evident that the seedlings were Snapdragons, and since the only such seeds I had on hand were ‘Night and Day’, I offered the plants as such. After the swap they began blooming and displayed an unexpected color, pink not deep red. I contacted Park Seeds where I purchased the seeds and sent them a photo of the resulting blooms. Their response was

“The Snapdragon seeds are labeled when they come from the supplier, but we do not have a way to know which one you received as we do not offer this particular one. We apologize for the error.”

Offering these particular plants has become an unending comedy of errors. I am unable to provide the correct ID and apologize to those received these plants expecting the more intense ‘Night and Day’. :-o
