Kyle, in my experience Petra flowers are a wee bit larger and the blooms last a day longer than Erin Rachael. In fact, needing to downsize my collection, I gave away Erin and kept Petra. The blooms look identical when they open, and the differences aren't very noticeable until the second day. I get 3 days out of Petra in the greenhouse. During the summer outside, they only last 2 days. Does this parallel your observations?
