Tipsy Tuesday

Cheers to Tipsy Tuesday!

Harvesting Seeds Tip: "Let the seeds ripen on the plants until they are almost ready to disperse on their own. Any seed harvested too early will not be viable. Seeds usually change color (from light to dark) when they are ready to be harvested. Cut off the entire stem containing the spent flower head that contains the seed. Take them indoors to a cool, dry spot to let them completely finish ripening inside a closed paper bag." The picture displayed is of a seeding poppy head.
