That is so cool Anya.  I hope it grows well. I've been interested in growing

frankincense for a while, and I nearly flipped when I saw one growing at

Fairchild a few years ago.  The mystique surrounding this plant!   Are you

going to put it in the ground or keep it potted? 

 I really enjoyed that article.  And I've spent many an hour perusing the Arid

Lands website(my only beef with it is that they don't have pictures of the

mature plant). I'm tempted to get a Boswellia.  I would love to have an arid

garden.

Thanks for the link Anya! Best of all is that the nursery described is

just a few miles away from me and an ideal climate here to grow this.

Looking forward to getting this growing here!

Thanks for this Anya...I am definitely going to give it go . The Sacra

might grow well here in the desert.

That is soooo cool, Anya. I have never seen incense plants offered. I

want 200 of them! HA

Maybe I had better start with one and see if I can keep it alive here in our

Mediterranean climate, alkalin, clay soil.

Thanks for the link, Anya! What an interesting person. I'm tempted to contact

him because of our shared backgrounds (Persian and architect). In Iran,

incense (kandoor) is burned along with esphand to purify homes, ward off

the evil eye, etc. I might try growing it in my garden as well. Perhaps that

way we all can share in saving the species.
