Umar, I like the "Sovereign Gold" in African type which I planted last year for very bright blooms, good branching, medium height and long blooming season. In French I will go for a Bonanza mix this year.

INCA is a very uniform plant and dependable as well but the bloom color is duller comparatively.

Brigd sb i use to plant F1 INCA I.The flowers are the largest 4" across in the African class.its flowering power is unbeatable.the hight is intermediate.purchase rooted cuttings instead of seedlings.rooted cuttings develope strong plants,faster to flower as compaired to the seedlings.the flower quality remains the same as from seedlings.i use to prune the plants when they reach to a 1 feet high to control the hight.it also make the plant healthier.INCA hight is 15 cm.INCA II flowers are smaller than inca 1.if u want more compact plants then F1 Discovery is for u.but the color range limits to two colors plus the flower size is also small than the INCA.
In French Bonanza is the leader.stunning colors on compact plasnts.Harmony & Bolero are my favourite colors in this series.if u want some thing diffrent try the creamy white F1 Vanilla.its African class,growing upto 18 cm.the flowers are 2.5-3".
