Here´s some Rooibart pix showing her after training:
Nice Swazi Aeric
Could you please describe some odors? I just noticed my little lady releases carrot kind of odor when her stem is rubbed between my fingers

this is a colombian x swazi red, the swazi parents came from afropips seeds, still have 4 more unpopped seeds, will pop them soon and see if i can make more seeds and adapt them better to here.

Thanks Herbalistic.
There always needs to be some good African around, so hopefully another company can spring up to take the place of African seeds or Afropips.
It was like walking into an auto shop with that fresh rubber tire smell, with a touch of skunk,but not like a modern "dank" or "roadkill" skunk and when dried it was like a soft (not sharp) parsley, with a liver undertone. I was looking out for the typical anise (know that's more durban, but anyways...), or carrot smell but never noticed it. The other was a very distinct sprite (the cola) smell with a hashy tone, reminded more of a classic hashplant type with the bud density and smell, and dark leaves. They weren't organic so they may have had a little more depth if they had been...the moms quickly went downhill for some reason, got spindly and stretchy too soon (as if they were years older) so were culled. The male i tried to keep autoflowered relentlessly and was culled before i could do anything with him, not a good trait to pass on. The high...takes you to another place and time, another way of being that is different from most strains, not exactly happy or sad but even keel, yet energetic, but in a subtle, not overpowering way, hardheads can't appreciate it.

I did end up finding a source, but could use more. As you all probly know African Seeds is long gone and I'm afraid that Afropips, who had all their original stock, is gone too. African seeds went under a few years ago so I'm worried about low germ rates as the seeds will be 2-3 years old, minimum. If you're still willing to trade please shoot me a pm.

This post was some time ago. But I'm searching for the strain. Us it ANYWHERE?! IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS SINCE COLLEGE. LOL
high fambz!
sadly african seeds company stopped existing in early 2000's, if you find any stock it will be VERY old -> most likely with a very low or non existing germination rate.
check out afropips, from what i read he started reproducing some of his offerings couple of months ago, used to have the rooi barat too, think he is on facebook now under the handle afropips...

If someone I once talked to who lives in South Africa was telling the truth... It is certainly out there ;-)
