    The seed head things look like Allium flower buds to me and the thorny thing as you put it is probably a Hawthorn

        Thanks, I googled Allium and it does look like it, peeps pay money for the bulbs and I've got them growing wild lol, I'll try collecting them, tho they dont look like seeds, they look like miniture bulbs:scratch:

        The Hawthorn needs to be moved, but not this year:D

        Many Thanks, Plant Potty.:)
