What I got as reply is even more funny than the offer....
QUOTATION:
"Hallo gartenbauer,
Hi,
Both are from the same genus. Resembles like a digitalis also but it
is a Kniphofia. Looks like digitalis purpurea f. albiflora, but has
yellow
flowers instead of white.
Kind Regards
-5eeds"
END OF QUOTATION
Well, I did not know that Digitalis and Kniphofia are in one genus, even
more surprising since they belong(ed) to diferent plant families.
These taxonomists are weird sometimes - LOL......
Best,
Bernhard.

Steve,
looks like you are right - or another person is going to sell a Kiphofia
'Candlelight' with a Digitalis picture.... ;-)
Rgds,
Bernhard.
