    I will be collecting seed pods once they start to dry out, and distribute to those that want some ( I get absolutely loads every year and throw them away ), save them being wasted.

    Wouldn't mind a few myself Nathan, bought a packet this year, must have had about ten seeds in it. Nothing came up :(
    And I do know that you get absolutely thousands from each pod [​IMG]

    Keep the list growing, I will be getting lots of seeds from it (it will also stop them going on the ground and germinating ;) ), so there will be no shortage.

    Cathysue, I have got 3 of these plants that I cut back in autumn and left them outside over winter (not worrying about them dying!!), and guess what, All of them survived.

    Once you've had them one season, you will be doing what I am now ...... giving away the seeds or binning them ;) .

    Nathan.

    Just a point Nathan, if you cut off the seed pods they'll keep flowering longer, of course you wont have so many seeds to give away. :D

    Pete,

    Dead-heading takes long enough with all the other plants, besides, the seed pods on the glory vine look like cocoon's and look quite different.
