Hi Christi, I got your email, replied, and thought I would post my reply here for others too. I just went out and looked at my big mixed clump. There are several dried up pods on there. In looking at several of them, the ones that are dried up are the ones with no seeds in them. In opening up a couple of the pods that are just light tan colored, I see there are seeds in them, but they are white, and not near ready to be harvested yet. Like one member said...when they are ready, they will start to split open. If you check them every so often, you will see their progress, and you can easily harvest some before they all spill out. Even after they split, they don't all fall out right away. Once you see some starting to split (assuming you have several buds) you can then go ahead and harvest the driest brownest looking ones. I will try and send you a pic, or post it to that thread of the pod with the white immature seeds. They are about half the size of a morning glory seed and are round balls. They are also susceptible to having bugs in them, so you also have to look out for that too. The bugs drill tiny holes in them. (I found out about the bugs the hard way too) ttyl...heading out for the day until dark.

Just to make it clear-the seeds in the list are my own seeds and I am only looking for Lagurus ovatus and Amaranthus tricolor seeds. Thanks :o) Robbi

Hi Kettish, I just thought I would give you some food for thought. My pink butterfly bush reseeded itself, and when the resulting seedlings bloomed (the same season I might add) they ended up being slightly different color variations of lavender/purple. Out of about 8 that bloomed, there was not a pink one among the bunch. If you are really wanting a dark purple one, you may have to end up either getting cuttings or an actual plant. Happy Trading.
