I've picked the large spherical seed heads of these plants, and they've dried out, and all the spikey bits have fallen off,but, I can't find the seeds in them. does anyone know of a photo of what the seeds should look like?They were'nt picked until the seed heads were completely brown. the bits that all fell off are like large spikey grass seed heads, but I'm sure that in there somewhere should be a distinguisable seed.
seeds of globe thistle, echinops bannateus
For a lack of any better way to describe them...they're shaped rather like a stubby toothpick
thanks ravenbuck, I'm off now to search for these stubby toothpicks :-)mind you , don't think I'll be using them as such!
