I like the greener petals and redder lip of the 'Carmela'.

I agree with edgy. The Carmela is a little "busy.". For me, I mean.

I like the symmetry of Everlasting. Carmela has too much going on for me. Good luck with your flask!

I like 'Carmela'. The lip pattern is pretty against the white background.

I like 'Carmela' richer color and I like the busy look of it.

If you haven't already purchased one - DO! I have one that looks like the 2nd one - grows like a weed and faithfully blooms EVERY SUMMER about this time - 4th or 5th year now.....

the everlasting has a simpler beauty, making it my choice, but both are gorgeous!

I'm a sucker for spots, so "Carmela". I like the way the spots seem to extend throughout the whole bloom.
