Mixed colour flower seeds

[Wareagle]

I sowed some veronica, delphinium and canterbury bells seed last year. They all looked very pretty with many different colours on the packet. This year they're all flowering now and guess what? the seed packet must have been lying. Instead of all the nice different colours all of them are purple. Does this happen to anyone else or am i just unlucky?

It's not the end of the world, i still have some lovely flowers, it's a bit disappointing though.

That sounds pretty frustrating wareagle! It's annoying when you plan for or expect something and then it doesn't happen!
I haven't ever used a mixed packet like yours so can't comment as to if it is a common occurrance or if you are just 'special'
