Optimara Girls (plant, not foliage)

Lilburn, GA

Today I got:

Black Foot Girl, Hopi, Creek girl and Arapahoe Girl. I got 2 Creeks, one has pink flowers the other has light pink lower petals but the two upper ones are vine colour. Does anyone know which one is Creek?
My two Hopis, one is l;ight purple and the other is dark pink. Which one is Hopi? some of these plants were clearly mislabebed.

thank you

Happy spider
