I was surprised I could find nothing on how to grow Osha seeds. Could you help me to know what conditions this plant likes best?According to Deni Bown's book "Encyclopedia of Herbs and their Uses" the genus Ligusticum seems to be closely related to lovage. It grows at higher elevations and some species of the genus have been given the common name of Alpine lovage. Ligusticum porteri comes from the southern Rocky Mountains from elevations of 2,400 to 3,600 meters. It prefers well-drained to dry soil in sun. Roots are havested in fall and used fresh or dried for oil extraction, decoctions and tinctures.
