- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Himalaya is moderate on both, Vetiver Geranium moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointHimalaya first, then Vetiver Geranium over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
