I have alot of White Yarrow and I want to collect seeds for trades. Are the brown spent blooms the seeds?
Hoping so! I just cut off all the dead flowers and brought them in the house.

Molly,
When they are dry, just cut the heads with some stem, and place into a paper sack, flowerhead in first..In a few weeks, give it a good shake and most of the seeds will fall to the bottom of the sack..then just cut stems off.. I use the lunch size bags, and just roll them up for storage, writing the name on the sack..I do this for things that I save a lot of..Saves room too..Even when mostly full, they roll up nicely for storage.
