Jill--

Nothing beats the Dr. Seuss in fragrance--from my limited experience.
It is sweet....floral..and intoxicating....The fragrance is not released until dusk.
In the daytime--there is not a trace of a fragrance.

Funny......even if you take a bloom and bring it into the house, put it in a vase
it too will release the fragrance as evening approaches....so--it must not rely
on the bloom being on the plant...

I think ALL Brugs have a fragrance--but the scents are subtly different. Sweet--spicy..etc.
You just have to wait until early evening to enjoy it.
Maybe the people that say theirs has no fragrance do not know it is only
released in early evening and at night.


PS--Re tables at the Swap--I will have quite a bit of stuff for the Hodge Podge pile....:o)
as well as the "Take it if you can use it table.

How many people do you have signed up, Jill?
