I couldn't quite tell from your picture, but at the end of the 'quills' you will see the small seed. It's like an elongated triangle and it should be lighter in color than the black quill.Kylee Baumlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288354709094515651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7864781849969727346.post-12587488838294359722007-08-30T20:11:00.000-07:002007-08-30T20:11:00.000-07:00I think the coneflower seeds look pretty good.

Toss them up in the air in a slight breeze and lots of the chaff (trash) will blow away.<BR/><BR/>It's very nice someone was able to show you step by step how to transplant successfully.

I can't really help you with the Rudbeckia but I know from seed trades that a lot of people accept that some seeds like the Rudbeckia are expected to come with chaff.<BR/><BR/>Tomorrow I'll try to take a picture of some Coneflower seeds to give you an idea of what the seeds look like.MrBrownThumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11326733084344581944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7864781849969727346.post-21841021985087971872007-08-29T15:58:00.000-07:002007-08-29T15:58:00.000-07:00I have never tried to save any of these seeds I'm ...I have never tried to save any of these seeds I'm sorry I can't help you :(<BR/><BR/>Love the "bug" picture!Laurie and Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15073743792312584639noreply@blogger.com
