I got these seeds last fall from a community garden... the woman who gave them to me told me they were called "monkey's head." But when I Googled that name for more info, I got information and images that were related to a certain kind of mushroom.

The seeds do indeed look a lot like little monkey heads, but I'm at a loss to identify the plant. In my memory, the flowers were shaped like those of a Chinese Lantern, only they weren't so brightly colored. (Actually, it was November, so they weren't really colored at all.) And I believe Chinese Lantern seeds are red?

Does anyone know what plant these seeds are from?
