Post #6717645

Now that some of the wildflowers are starting to bloom, how can I determine if the flower head is where the seeds are? Do I just take some and hope for the best? :) Also, do I have to wait until the flower is almost spent? I'll have to time it just right in that case, or I may not be able to find the plant among all the other "stuff" growing alongside the road! (needless to say, these don't grow out in front of my house LOL)

I don't even know the name of the flowers, but I've seen 2 different ones that I want to try to get seed from.
Once I get them, I'll post pictures and hope that someone recognizes them and can give them a name for me.

thanks for any help :)
