I have LOADS of Echinacea seeds. Like--a cup and a half full.

How come???? I kepr dead-heading these in the HD garden---to, ahem--
make them more salable....Took the dead blooms home and dried them and collected a bunch of seeds.

I would imagine they need striation to come up next year---yes?
SO! Sprinkle them when Nature would--maybe in September????

Did a photo of where to find the seeds in a flower head of this plant. The seeds are quite large.

They hide so well......:o) See them in between the spikes?
When done picking--all that is left is the "cone" of the Cone Flower.....
