"madgardener" wrote in message ... "Bear Drummer" wrote in message ups.com... I am trying to find a source for sarsaparilla for us to grow - We are in Southern Mississippi... we love root beer, and my sister has started making teas with what she finds at the herb shops, but we want to grow it, not buy it in bulk... I have searched Burpee's, and done google searches looking for a source... does anyone have ideas on where to obtain some? that would be the sassafras tree. And you'd have to boil the whole damn thing to get a toxic ticturn. And the person saying there was something at the store, is speaking of the bottled concentrate (it's not THAT strong) is called "Pappy Sassafras" and it's safe to use. I would suspect living in Mississippi youi have it growing in the woods and just don't know it. Ask an older person. They'll point out the palmate leaves and you can dig up a sapling. I have six of them given me by the southern fairies and will encourage them to grow as they are also beautiful trees in the fall. madgardener The Root Beer Concentrate I wrote about is called just that "Root Beer Concentrate" It is from McCormick. A 2.0 Ounce bottle of concentrate will make 5 Gallons of Root Beer. That seems pretty strong to me! A URL for this product may be found at: http://www.mccormick.com/productdetail.cfm?id=6033 |
