Where are the seeds of a plant?
In order to continue to grow plants in the heirloom gardening tradition, you must know where the seeds on a plant.
The seeds are near the bottom of the flower where they develop while the plant wilts and dies. It is nature’s way of keeping the flowers to grow again. When the plant is completely wilted the area where the seeds are will be enlarged and it will eventually open.
Let the plant open the pod where the seeds are this will guarantee that the seeds are ready to collect. Different flowers and plants have different ways of opening up the seed pod. The seeds will need to continue to dry for another week. Store them somewhere they wouldn’t be disturbed.
After a week of drying, place the seeds in a type container where no moisture can get in, small paper bags are ideal. Just make sure that they are not in direct sun or anywhere a rodent can get to them.
