When viewed right after each other (which is what we did in the model center) the difference is readily apparent. We plan to use that front room/den as an office with a 2nd large screen TV with surround sound setup so we can close the door off to the rest of the house. Not only are the dimensions much bigger in that room but the pushed out 'bay' style window adds even more depth and light.
Tray ceiling may now be offered on the Gardenia but the floor plan does not reflect that nor did the model that I saw.
We also plan to push out the lanai with a birdcage and a concrete patio (and/or pool) if the lot will accept it. All depends on the $$.
Again - this is just our opinion and everyone's taste and needs are different.

Russ,
I pulled up a Lily & a Gardenia on the New Homes site, and clicked on floor plans. That's where I saw the dimensions. That was all I based it on.
I went to an open house with a Gardenia a few weeks ago and it had the tray ceiling.
I am of course not disagreeing with you, as you say tasets and needs are different.
I do agree with one of the prior posts that talked about the 12 ft wide slider. It is nice. Really opens up the entire house when it's open.
