Just leave the seedpod on the plant until it's dry. As I recall (it's
been a while) the top of the pod eventually developed little holes and
some seeds could be shaken out of the pod, so you need to 'harvest'
before a stiff wind knocks the seeds all over the place.


If I can manage to save some seed from those plants, would you like some?
I bought a couple of plants from the nursery this spring. The owner said,
"You'll love them. Give 'em a try." She was right -- they just keep cranking
out the blooms and they're gorgeous!


Unfortunately I no longer have any sunny spots to plant in. Thank you
for your kind (and tempting) offer. Maybe if Isabel comes through here
and knocks down all the trees..? Would love to see pictures,
however.
