    Hey Lou,
    Sweet cicely seeds are available from many sources, consult your favourite seed catalogs or search online. Plant in early spring (or fall) where they are to grow. A sunny site is best.

    Here is an interesting link about the herb (although it offers little cultural info):

    I once pruned at a recently purchased derelict rural dwelling north of here, part of the front yard was nearly waist-high sweet cicely drifting among old fruit trees.
