This is my first time to the seed forum because I don't normally collect or grown from seed. I do, however, collect my hellebore seeds because everyone that falls germinates and them I have a clump of seedlings. Now, by collecting them, I can spread them more evenly over the soil and seed bed. Like I said, these are the only seeds I collect because they are the only ones I've been able to throw down and they grow.

Anyway, at the risk of y'all already know about these, I just found a great way to collect the seeds and wanted to share it. I use to use little nets that came off of store bought flowers that held the plowers closed until you brought them home. NOW, I've discovered these cheap wedding favor mesh bags at Wal-Mart. They are wonderful because they have side drawstrings and allow you to tighten the neck of the bag over the flower. I love them!
