Hi,
Does anyone know where I can get proving information on Crocus sativus?

One ref is this, but I can not find text:

A proving of Crocus sativus.
MACFARLAN D.
Homoeopath Rec. 1946 May;61(11):334-7.

Thanks for any leads!
Namaste,
Irene

Hi, Irene
I have a proving supervised by Stapf and Gross, if you're interested. It would take a bit of time to copy from RefW, but if you want it, just let me know.
Peace,
Dale

Thanks, Lynn, for all your work. I believe it was Irene de Villiers who was interested in the Crocus-sat. proving, not me. But good to know this stuff is archived at the NIH!
Peace,
Dale
