See More Garden Goodies: http://www.WisconsinGarden.com - - - Fall is the perfect time for gathering seeds from your favorite plants. Just like harvesting vegetables, harvesting seeds becomes your personal seed bank in case a favored plant doesn’t return the following spring. Today we will begin looking at a variety of plants that seem to have seed pods ready to pick. Even though we collect seeds we are going to leave a majority remain on the plants as a winter food source for birds and small animals throughout the coming winter. Some of the seed we will be gathering are liatris, tree peony, ligularia, native gray headed coneflower, mock orange, giant hardy hibiscus, yucca, zinnias, tea rose hips, short allium, joe pyeweed, Chinese lanterns, blanket flower, marigold, and sunflowers. In the coming weeks we will continue our search waiting for common milkweed and orange butterfly weed seed pods to mature. Who knows what else we may find. Have fun gathering your own seeds.
