Mike, are you here? Wonder if anyone has had luck in growing these from seed. I started some last year and got a few to sprout but lost them when I left town. This time I hope to pin the branches down to get them to root. Have some seeds left but I don't know this secret.

For those of you who have never seen it, it's especially great in the spring (fragrant flowers that attract butterflys) and fall (rosey bracs and turquoise seeds) but whenever there's leaves, there's the scent of Skippy Peanut Butter when rubbed, really fun for kids. I think Ruby likes it too. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/772/
