Sources for Sweet Cicely (Myrrhis ODorat (post #11759)

I am trying to locate a source for a plant, Sweet Cicely (Myrrhis odorata), first mentioned in Fine Gardening 96 (April 2004).  The article didn't mention a source for it, and I was unable to come up with one on Google.  Any ideas?

Sweet Cicely is a wildflower in Peterson's guide.  Since wild things have become so popular, you might just check your local perennial nursery.  I think I saw it for sale here in Indiana.  Or look in resources associated with wildflowers.  Pat/Lunaria

When I first began gardening I began to get the Thompson and Morgan seed catalog and it became a kind of plant resource for me.  I would browse through it each night and I think it is one reason I remember so many plants - even the ones I never grew.  Pat/Lunaria

Try Sandy Mush Herb Nursery. http://www.sandymushherbs.com/ It's been a long time since I've ordered from them, mainly salvias -- the plants were small but healthy and the prices and selection are amazing. You might need to e-mail to get an updated plant listing.

Thanks, Karen.  I will email them as soon as I've thanked you.  The article said they would do well in the shade and bloom for 3 weeks.  It sounds like a winner.
