But Little Sweetscent AND Nestor are the same hybrid. One hybrid name is a synonym for the other!

You can never say that one plant is this versus that based only on color! You need more substantial reasons.
There are several color varieties of both anonsmum and parishii. Some are lighter and some are darker for example.
If you use a darker colored anosmum and cross it with parishii it is still Nestor. And if you cross a lighter colored anosmum with parishii, it too is Nestor.
If I have a black Ford Mustang and you have a red Ford Mustang, we both own a Mustang. Yours is not a Ford "stallion" because it is a different color!!!
