2025 - Seeds I've saved

I’ve saved a few echium blue bedder . They’re not coming out easily. Even though they were black. So will have another go in a couple of days

I think they're supposed to be more grey than black. When I've saved from Blue Bedder in the past, I just cut off the brown flower stalks and chucked them in a bucket until they went crispy. The seed comes out much easier then if you rub the stalks between your hands (with gloves on, since they're a bit spiky/hairy).
