Re: Scents/Lilacs/Cimicifuga

Gene,

Naturally, I didn't read the info for the Cimicifuga seed until it was
already dry. I thought I would give it a try anyway. I had planned to
keep cycling through 6-8 week periods of cold and warm. If it hasn't
germinated by fall I'll put the seeds outside. Undoubtedly, they will
have some Dictamnus (gas plant), also a current fridge resident, for
company. :)

Thanks for the encouragement.
