I’ve saved a few echium blue bedder . They’re not coming out easily. Even though they were black. So will have another go in a couple of days

I started thinking about saving tomato seeds. I've saved seeds from a black cherry that P likes. It wasn't supposed to be a black cherry, it was labelled up as Black Russian which I think is beefsteak. Funny though is both plants turned out to be cherries. I can't think I got it so wrong, I'm really quite careful at labelling seeds, it's a mystery.

So will have another go in a couple of daysI think they're supposed to be more grey than black. When I've saved from Blue Bedder in the past, I just cut off the brown flower stalks and chucked them in a bucket until they went crispy. The seed comes out much easier then if you rub the stalks between your hands (with gloves on, since they're a bit spiky/hairy).

Saved pea seeds now for next year. Got enough for 50' row with a few extra. Was a little bit worried as my daughter had recently brought a little boy she is fostering who is very partial to fresh garden peas and quite liked helping himself.

Saved some blue cornflower seeds, pink cornflower, poppy, pink corncockle, cosmos
The poppy and some of the blue cornflower got direct sown / scattered over the wild flower area.
