cockscomb


I think this is what I have, looks like it, big pinkish red heads on top. When can you collect seeds from this? They still look fresh, not turning brown.

If it is cocks comb you can cut it and put it upside down in a paper bag and leave it some place dry. Shake it every now and then and you will hear the seeds fall out. I did this last year with a big cocks comb and then planted them in the spring and they came up just fine. They should be little black seeds.
