Photo of gerber daisy seeds?

Cordeledawg,

When you find the seed it won't look exactly like the photo in your link. They will have the fluff still attached.

You may have to go through quite a few seeds, but when you see one that's fatter than all the others, the lightbulb will go off in your head.

It seems like the biggest seed heads that look less smooth on the suface have more viable seed in them. I've gone through tons of seed heads and found none, but the one time I found 60+ on one head.....it made it all seem worth it! And now I even have seedlings up from some of the seeds!

Check out my photo showing non viable seed on the left and viable on the right. You're going to see both on the same head.
