Look at your leaves, if they are dark green, you have Lei Rainbow and if the leaves have a red border, you have Nebel's Rainbow. Lei Rainbow has a stronger scent than Nebel's. Nebel's has better keeping quality and is a larger flower. Note the pointy petals and how it is different than Nebels. Upright and open branching variety suitable for landscaping, the flowers are a unique blend of rainbow colors, pink, yellow and red. Branching is average. Elliptical dark green leaves have acute tips. The production is heavy on strong branches. Easy to root. Heavy bloomer. Lei Rainbow is one of my top 10. The colors are really vibrant. The smell is really nice too. Spider mites really seem to like it. Rapid growth, large leaves, but blooms open a few at a time. Lei rainbow is able to withstand extreme weather conditions better. A hardier plant. If you look in Eggenberger's book (page
