Guest guest Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I kept thinking that we wouldn't see them until February, but here they are. They've not bloomed yet, but after the rains of last week there are zillions of bunches of unopened flowers on all of the Pittosporum undulatum trees on my block. I'm gonna watch 'em like a hawk, and get ready to do enfleurage with them. I think that since they smell most strongly at night, that I should pick them just as they're beginning to smell strongly. I'll report back on how it goes! Alfred in San Francisco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know for one would be intrigued and fascinated........it would be lovely to see them on the trees. Janita Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.
