I don't know if you grew these from seed, and if so you may already know this... Gomphrenia seeds are a bit odd, as they are enclosed within the papery dried petals. When you take apart the flower head, you'll find some petals with hard little lumps at their bases... those are the seeds. (Don't try to remove them, just plant them with their little petal.)

Let me see if i've got a photo...
