Seed Collecting

This weekend I tried seed saving for the first time. I collected seeds for: 

  • cosmos
  • marigolds
  • South African Daisies
  • Giant chives
  • coreopsis
  • Lavender Bergamot
  • blanket flower
  • echinacea
  • bachelor buttons

it’s quite a trick to recognize the seed in all of the debris of an old flower. Some of the plants aren’t ready yet…like my Maximilian sunflowers. I wasn’t successful with saving any of the dahlia seeds, although i think I disbursed quite a few of them.
