I've been finding these on the patio for the last few days. I don't know
where they are from. Any idea as to what they are? The one at the top
has had the pink coat removed. I had assumed they were seeds, but maybe
they are some type of bulblet.

Try opening one up, I think they may be buds being knocked or stripped
off something nearby


Dunno. The only things above the patio are a Wisteria (just starting to
flower), and a Clematis armandii (finished flowering a few weeks ago).
Neither has any buds like the things I found. The birds seem to leave
them alone - I'd have thought they might see them as food.

If I remember, I'll bring some to Longstock. You can have a look there!
