It's funny, about the "aroma." As a little girl I played around with a magnifying glass, burning holes in things (yes, I hate to admit it, but I probably scorched a few bugs.....), you know, it's what kids did back then. We had a shrub in the yard which I now know was a ligustrum. It had nice thick, waxy leaves, so I burned holes in quite a few of those -- and they had a distinctive smell. Fast forward to my college days (no, I didn't...) and a CHICAGO concert here in town. My olfactory senses suddenly transported me back to my childhood days -- I recognized that smell! Then it dawned on me.... Oh! So now I'm curious. We have ligustrums. Should I?
