ahelms sent me a Dr. Seuss and a Betty Marshall but I can't find a picture of Betty Marshall in the PDB. Does anyone have a pic and any information specific to this brug?
Betty Marshall

Wow, thanks. It will be interesting to see which white I like best, Betty Marshall or Whiskers.....
I thought Whiskers was a yellow brug..am I mistaken?
There are some white Whiskers floating around out there.
Mine is the yellow one.
Betty Marshal is good for breeding, if you want heat tolerance.Suaveolens are good for that quality.I had Betty Marshal years back..nice fragrant medium sized flowers with short spurs.Heavy bloomer.
No real summer heat here; I hope it will bloom in our cooler climate.
I don't know if I have the white or yellow Whiskers; I'll just have to be patient and see..

Where did "white whiskers" come from?
Think it was a sport of whiskers.
Jumpin in here :)
This was Natalyn's "White Whiskers" now named 'Ambrosia'.

I bought a couple of "White Whiskers" cuttings off E bay a while back, And potted them up last week, I"m sure the man lived in Fl.. The flower was that of the one pictured here,white with long tendrils. I'm now wondering if in fact that It's "Ambrosia", Natalyn's flower ??.
I'll still call it as what it was sold to me as, 'White Whiskers.
