Please......Could a thread be started showing us newbies photos of the seeds/seed heads of various flowers?  I would like to collect seeds but I can't always recognise what is a seed/old petals.  Thanks.

    The best thing would be for you to put a photo on of what you want to collect, someone will then identify which bit is what.

    I was passing a plant yesterday and reached out to gather a few seeds. They fell into my hand easy enough but they weren't ripe - they looked really green. Then the blinking things got up and started to walk off. They were greenfly!
