I had some live flowers in my room, and now they're wilted. Can I take the seeds out right away and plant them, or do I need to wait and dry them for a while?
Flower seeds?
Did you pollinate the flowers? If not, then the seeds probably aren't viable.
Reply:Wait and let them dry a bit. Then you can transplant them. =]
Reply:Let them dry for about a week or so. Lay them on a sheet of paper towel or newsprint to dry.

Does Target sell flower seeds that aren't treated with pesticides?
I'm not sure of that, I buy my seeds at either "Wild Oats" or "Whole Foods" where they are certified organic....

Best website to get flower seeds??
I want flower seeds. Where is a place that offers quality seeds that aren't too expensive. Also i am hoping the website offers seeds that you don't usually find stores. Any suggestions?
Best website to get flower seeds??
Here are two websites that I keep in my favorites: botanicalinterests.com and gardenguides.com. I've used both of them to order flower seeds in the past, and I was absolutely delighted with their quality and service.

Are there flower seeds that will take root simply by being thrown down (without having to plant)?
If so, could you provide examples? Zone 6.
I'm looking to do something like this (with a mixture of grass %26amp;/or clover):

Reply:you can plant 4 o"clock seeds now for bloom in the summer.It takes them awhile to germinate.they will make a root in a couple of years......Touch me knots, purple cone flower.......
Reply:is not this is what nature does you can help take a hard rake and pull the rake once to the north and then to the south across the ground
Reply:Almost anything will, if you have enough seeds. Some will sprout, and if you put down a gazillion, that's enough to have flowers. That's how the plants do it themselves, after all. However, they don't have to pay $2.95 for a small quantity of seeds.
I would pull out whatever's big and would compete, rake the area so the seeds can get into the soil, spread the seed, and rake again so the seed is turned under. Then water regularly until they sprout. That's the lazy-gardener version of actually planting the area "the right way".
I do this when I have a few handsful of wildflower seeds. It works for black-eyed susans, coneflowers, pinks, wild shasta-type daisies. It also works for the more vigorously seed-producing garden flowers, like cosmos, calendula, and marigold. You can gather a lot of seed from them if you let the last blooms of the season go to seed.
Reply:I'm going to send you back to your very own web site that you posted and there you will find a seed packet for the "Fleur de lawn"
since it is obviously exactly what you are looking for. You can purchase the seed packet right here.

In the center of a lily flower, there are small, slightly rectangular seeds that seem to float in the center..
Float in the center on very delicate stems...Are these the seeds of the flower? What are they and what is their purpose?

That is the Anther. This is the part of the stamen that produces and contains pollen. It is usually on top of a long stalk that looks like a fine hair.

Reply:The stamen (from Latin stamen meaning "thread of the warp") is the male organ of a flower. Each stamen generally has a stalk called the filament (from Latin filum, meaning "thread"), and, on top of the filament, an anther (from Ancient Greek anthera, feminine of antheros "flowery," from anthos "flower,").
The anther is usually composed of four pollen sacs, called microsporangia. The development of the microsporangia and the contained haploid spores, (called pollen-grains) is closely comparable with that of the microsporangia in gymnosperms or heterosporous ferns. The pollen is set free by the opening (dehiscence) of the anther, generally by means of longitudinal slits, but sometimes by pores, as in the heath family (Ericaceae), or by valves, as in the barberry family (Berberidaceae). It is then dropped, or carried by some external agent — wind, water or some member of the animal kingdom — onto the receptive surface of the carpel of the same or another flower, which is thus pollinated.
Typical flowers have six stamens inside a perianth (the petals and sepals together), arranged in a whorl around the carpel (pistil). But in some species there are many more than six present in a flower (see, for example, the spider tree flower, below). Collectively, the stamens are called an androecium (from Greek andros oikia: man's house). They are positioned just below the gynoecium. The anthers are bilocular, i.e. they have two locules. Each locule contains a microsporangium. The tissue between the locules and the cells is called the connective.
In an immature, unopened flower bud, the filaments are still short. Their function is then to transport nutrients to the developing pollen. They start to lengthen once the bud opens. The anther can be attached to the filament in two ways:
* basifixed : attached at its base to the filament; this gives rise to a longitudinal dehiscence (opening along its length to release pollen)
* versatile : attached at its center to the filament; pollen is then released through pores (poricidal dehiscence).

Stamens can be connate (fused or joined in the same whorl):
* monadelphous : fused into a single, compound structure
* diadelphous : joined partially into two androecial structures
* synantherous : only the anthers are connate (such as in the Asteraceae)
Stamens can also be adnate (fused or joined from more than one whorl):
* epipetalous : adnate to the corolla
* didynamous : occurring in two pairs of different length
* tetradynamos : occurring as a set of six filaments with two shorter ones
* exserted : extending beyond the corolla
* included : not extending from the cor

Potato plants produces seeds, flower,fruit yet do not grow from them?
well the tops arent what you eat..you eat the roots of that plant..same with a carrot..you are eating the roots....
Potato plants produces seeds, flower,fruit yet do not grow from them?
Interesting. I never thought about that. From what I've just read, potatoes can grow from the seeds the plants produce. It's just usually done the other way--planting part of the potato itself.
Reply:same thing with tomatoes, if you don't plant it into the ground, your limiting their growing space so they stop growing / or don't grow as big. Just like an iguana, if you put it into a small cage, it will never get bigger than the length of the cage. same thing

Combination of jellybean seeds for a flower in toontown?
When I'm making my garden in toontown and I want to make a flower, it doesn't let me plant a combination for a flower. It just lets me do 1 jellybean seed per flower. How do you do a combination for a flower. Plus do you get a new Cattalog every week in toontown?
Combination of jellybean seeds for a flower in toontown?
You do get a new cattelog every week. One of my toons comes every Wednesday, and the other two come on Friday.
The flower situation: You can only plant one bean for right now. Once you have mastered the one bean, then it will move you up to two, then three, etc all the way up to 8.
The only way to move up is to plant your one jellybean, there are a total of 5 plant species for one jellybean, 2 beans, 3 beans and so on.
Plant a bean in every place you can in your garden and water. The next day your plants should bloom, water them and pick them. Then plant again, keep doing this everyday until a message pops up telling you, you can now plant two jellybeans and so on.
If you open your schitcker book and go to the gardening page, you will see you have a watering can, and a shovel.
I can't quite remember but the shovel will say 0/80, once you hit 40/80 it'll let you plant 2 jellybeans, and once you hit 80/80 it'll let you plant 3. Then it moves up 0/160, once you hit 80/160 you can plant 4 and so on.
Hope this helps!
