Orris powder

Can anyone help please. Does anybody know where I can buy some. Don't really want to order from internet if possible. Made some orange / clove spice pomanders to give as presents in a couple of weeks but have just found out that I need this to "fix" them:o

    I don't think you have to have it - I have made a couple too, but I don't have any.....

    What do others think?

    You don't have to use orris root powder, I think it makes them last longer but if they are for presents in a couple of weeks I wouldn't bother with it. As for buying it, I use to get it from the local health food store, though it is cheaper on the internet now.
