Eric's Fragrant White

I think I got this brug from Tig or Owen two years ago. Can not find it in the plant data base. Does anyone know how this one came about and got its name.

I never heard of Eric's white. There was a Kyle's Giant white.

I guess I am getting to old as it was back in 2002 when I got is as a newbee. LOL
Probably something like Monster Brug a name only on Daves. I was new and did not ask about it at the time. Have not seen Owen or Tig post in a long time. Ted

Pretty sure Bonnie grew it for Eric. There were seeds in seedbank(BGI), think they were Erics' Fragrant White.

Has it bloomed for you? Does it smell good?

I have one that I got last year from WanntabeGardener and we jokingly tagged as Erics White reward. It was a pretty white and smell just DE-VINE...........but that was not the name of it we just put something on it for referance..........I still have some of it around it is really good in the heat and bloomed alot when other stuff wouldn't.............This is it at night.......


Edited to correct Diana's name...........

Thanks everyone for your input. Did a forums search and could not get back before 2004. What did you do to get the information?
I have 7 rooted cuttings to plant come spring. Is a very hardy brug, takes the sun and smells so gooooood. Will take four of them to the Texoma Roundup, plant two and one is spoken for.

Hibisus Tell me more. Was there a reason that she grew it. Want so much to keep it alive and share it as it was my first brug. It is so nice to have a story attached to one. Is Eric still with Daves. What were their Daves Authur's names. ETC

I dont think a lot of the search features will be fully working until DG gets back on his regular server.

Normally you can go back to day one.

Ted: Bonnie(tig) was growing all of Erics' seeds, lived close to her. He was known as Eric, as far as I can remember. He moved to Tx. then joined the army. I suppose he is in Iraq??
