My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Seed Saving

Cimifuga (sp?) seeds

18 years ago

This is my first year of growing this plant. I am in love with the fragrance of this flower! It is also known, I believe, as bugbane or snake root. I noticed what appear to be seed pods developing on the spent spikes this week. Does anyone have any info or tips on saving seeds from this plant or am I just better off waiting until it is larger and dividing it? Any advice will be appreciated.

TIA

Barbara
