Nah, I've been lazy. I'll get around to it, but I'm not in too much of a hurry at the moment.

First I've heard of Yellow Siris. Had to google it. The Indian variety is very useful

"Take equal amounts of siris seeds, sultanas, asafoetida, garlic, dry ginger, orris root, and Koot, and mix everything in goat’s urine to make a paste. Apply as a eye liner to cure madness."

Did you get any of the seeds?

No but I am an old Koot!

When I read "Across the India, up to 8,000 ft height, Siris trees are found,(ok so far) either wild or planted."
Huh??? How else whould they possibly get there? Sherpas? airlifts?

I decided to jump and pull the ripcord.
