Etymology of Erica:
Gk. ereike = to break. The name used for a heath by Theophrastus (372–287 BCE) and Pliny the Elder. The stems are brittle and break easily (Lindsay); or possibly but less likely because of the ability of the plant to break up bladder stones (Paxton’s Botanical Dictionary).
Etymology of albospicata:
From the Latin alba = 'white' and spicata = 'spiked' or 'spike'; usually refering to the flowers in an arrangement of a spike, an inflorescence with single flowers on a stalk arranged with the oldest at the bottom.
