Those 2 are very close. I have both and will try to get a picture of the blooms. Maybe that will tell us. Didn't see any bloom pictures in the data base or on line. I think they are both not to spectacular.

Be sure to allow LOTS of room for the Baptisia 'Purple Smoke'. It gets huge!! Mine has at least a 4' spread.
Here's a pic of it in 2011 before it was full grown!! I'll get one when it blooms this year.
