Hi,
both are worth growing and both have some ornamental value. D. wrightii has bigger flowers. The differences are in the plant structure and flower form. For the beginner they are not easy to separate.

Thanks fengshui05. Do you know what the differance in form and fragrance are? I'm wanting to grow which ever one is more fragrant.
Thanks.

Smell is a personal impression. I think that D. inoxia's is more intense. But anyway both are good growers in drier areas. D. wrightii is for me the better ground cover with bigger flowers.

D. wrightii seems to me to have smaller flowers than my noid whites or the double purple and the tripple yellows.

PA,
it seems that you make a compare of D. wrightii to forms of D. metel. 'Yellow Queen' is for example a triple yellow.

fengshui05,
I think you are right. My purples and yellows did not come with names only seeds from a friend. when I grew out some d.wrightii s last year I did notice that they were smaller than what I had grown before "d.Metel" and I didn't know their proper name.
thanks
