Name: Ratchet
Southeastern AZ (Zone 8b)
I have wild flowers that are going to seed. I am collecting the seeds to resow in other areas.
My question is: If the seeds that are dropping off the plants now are seedlings for next year, then is now the time to plant? In other words, If I collect seeds from a plant that has ripened seeds that are falling or blowing off the plant, aren't those seeds being planted right now?
Should I sow the gathered seeds in the new location right now and let nature take it's course or should I save the seeds for late fall or early spring planting?
