Thank you, Michele! And thank you for sharing this post! Forgive me for just now responding–we just returned from vacation and I just now saw this!

I love to garden and sometimes harvest seeds but I really need to be better about doing that more often and with all of my flowers.

Thanks for sharing great info!

Oh, you are my hero! I am just beginning to harvest seeds. I have harvested zinnia seeds for many years, but all of the others are new to me. Can’t wait to try my hand at planting them next summer. Just harvested some yellow melon seeds today. The melon was delightful and so worth trying to grow from those seeds. Someone gave me marigold seeds this year and I can’t wait to try them, too. I’ll have to follow along with you to learn more about harvesting! Thanks for stopping by.

Yes! These are garlic chives, too. I haven’t grown or harvested tomatillos…and green beans? I haven’t thought about harvesting them! You are speaking to my heart. Thanks for commenting.

I save seeds all the time and share them with family members. Thus summer I grew tomatoes, peppers, and herbs with saved seeds. I also save and dry many spent flowers to regrow them from seed next summer. I have had great success with marigolds.

I have also been harvesting chives this week, as well as some green beans and tomatillos. I’m glad we can do this simple thing to ensure our garden supply for next year!

I enjoy chives in many dishes. We grow the garlic chives, and I find myself snipping them into salads and soups often!

Thanks for sharing!
