A few heads of Babington Leek bulbils - now in the GH to dry off after yesterday's rain.
Also collected some pods of Lady Di climbing beans. Always seems a bit odd to call a bean by that name.

I sowed/planted your seed swap Babbingtons last spring, they sprouted and then died off. I didn't think much of it but left them in situ. Now I see they're sprouting again so all is well. Thanks V.

Saved some Roma tomato seeds. They were the best cooking tomato this year as a lot of the others suffered from greenback with all the sunshine. Also some had very little core which I find unusual for a plum tomato.

Collected the last of the radish pods. Bombay bronze cockscomb seed head got decapitated today and hung upside down. I think it’s dropped most of its seeds into the bag it’s been in for the last month. Just giving it its last few days to release the final few.

Almost forgot I saved some pineapple seeds last week. That’s going to be a fun little challenge.

That’s very helpful. Thank you. I now know my seeds are definitely ripe. So that’s a good start. I now also know why I’d never noticed seeds in a fresh pineapple before. Not all have seeds. I’ve learned a lot from the link.  Cool
