Hide the bags in your car and keep a couple in your sock to lecture law enforcement on the importance of native plants, it is a moment they'll remember and tell their friends about.
Used to work Fire/EMS and, can confirm, this would be a GREAT way to start a “conservation conversation” with Law Enforcement. If they start kneeling on your neck, then you know it’s going swimmingly. #helpfultips
I cut junkmail envelopes in half and keep seeds in there. They're free and the paper makes sure moisture can escape if case they aren't all the way dry. Just gotta fold the open end over and write a label on the back. Sometimes you even get a little window so you can see what the seeds look like. If the seeds or heads are too big, liquor store bottle bags are just perfect too!
Couldn't have come at a better time! There's a space that was reserved as a wildlife area near my work that's now getting bulldozed and developed. It's currently in bloom so time to grab all the seeds I can.
Is there someone who would get permission to dig up the plants and transplant them onto better protected property (assuming there aren't jumping worms/invasives)? I hope you're able to grab seeds.
"Take those seeds and put them in a bag, say that with me..." Sidenote: Always keep in mind that seeds and plant material mixed in will mold if you keep them in a sealed bag for prolonged time if they are not completely dry
No doubt, but a paper lunch bag wicks the moisture and if obvious moisture throw a paper towel in there. Plastic even if top open can mold. Your sidenote is key
Pud'em in a bag. Looking forward to gathering acorns to plant next year after I freeze them. Mostly burr oak and scarlet. I like the big caps on the acorns. Trying to make better habitat for bear and deer.
A native plant nursery opened up this year on the East side of Cleveland, Ohio. And in late winter The Cleveland Seed Swap is held where there are native plant seeds to be had.

I’m ready to see a new “Take the seeds, and put’em ina bag!” Sticker. Or a “PLANT THEM DENSE!” one, I’d buy both! Great video, please keep them coming!
Same for the Netherlands. Solidago gigantea is an even more common invasive. I have a little goldenrod patch in my garden, insects love it. I do remove the seed heads before the seeds are ripe though.
I have been collecting native wildflower seeds from my land to make “flower bombs” to throw into ditches on my way to town. I dream of a drive to work that is lousy with native blooms.
Thank you so much for the lesson. Fucking awesome. Just collected some last night. Waiting for A. gerardii to go to seed. The good thing about collecting seed of R. pinnata is that is smells amazing when you crush the seedheads.
I love this video, people need not to be afraid to overcomplicate the idea of collecting native seeds. Take 10% of what seeds/seed pods you find and go and just, try to do some good with them. Eventually some are gonna sprout and grow into mature healthy plants and benefit your local ecology!
After watching your video about that guy's prarie backyard yesterday, I took my dog for a walk to a place I know with a power line running through the forrest and came home with a pocket full of goldenrod, aster, and evening primrose. The first two are pretty common around here in ditches and stuff. Got some funny looks from my wife though 😅
Been 'puttin' em inna bag' since 2001 doing volunteer work with The Nature Conservancy in Minnesota. All seeds collected get redistributed on site in places needing help (previously choked with buckthorn and, yes, even sumac). Super dry here this year though so the seed crop is very poor. I'm all for collecting seed and replanting where natives have been lost for whatever reason. Please don't dig wild plants though unless transplanting from one garden to another. Tony's gone on that that rant before, and he's right!
You know what, up here in Michigan you take the paper bag from whatever you got at the dispensary. That's a perfect bag for collecting seeds! Ask me if I know from experience.
I literally went to the local dispensary this morning on my bike and had to detour on my way home. There was a monarch butterfly garden with a bunch of dead flower heads. "I should grab a bunch of this but l don't have my bags! What should l...? 💡😃💡" Then l come home and see this comment 🤣
Dehiscense is one of my favourite words in botany. I find the mechanisms of dehiscence fascinating, especially with explosive dehiscing. Nature is amazing.
We have got to get you over to Chicago Public Schools Waters Elementary School in Lincoln Square. Massive native gardens surround it and are part of a flourishing ecology program. Absolutely beautiful and well established.
There is some native Spreading Dogbane (Apocynum androsaemifolium) growing along the side of the road nearby. I am thinking of waiting until the plants go completely dormant this winter, then taking a shovel and gently digging a few of them for my garden. I checked yesterday and saw a few seed heads developing so I'll probably go back in few weeks to check on those. Either way, I hope to establish this lovely plant in my garden to give the critters another choice on the menu.
definitely take seeds over digging! I've committed that sin before and I still feel bad for it. Now I'm doing all sorts of research to figure out how to germinate the seeds I've collected this year and its a little fulfilling all on its own to research and learn about the specific plants. Plus one thing I've got I can't find any information on germinating so who knows, maybe I'll be the first to know something
@@LichenDragon There are probably 50 plants at this site. I would probably dig 3. And they are on the roadside, not in a habitat area which is the only reason I would even consider it.
I live in St. Louis City and I HATE grass and resent having to maintain it. I’ve always joked that my overgrown yard is “prairie revival”. I’ve managed to mostly kill the lawn in my backyard, but I’ve begrudgingly kept my tiny front lawn which I “mow” with a weed whacker just often enough to not get ticketed by the city. I want to start collecting seeds like these to actually turn my yard into a prairie revival zone. And finally kill off the rest of my lawn.
Heard about this channel from someone in R/whatidthisplant. They described your personality well but not well enough. I enjoyed the everloving f**k out of this. Keep loving what you love and sharing it.
Would love a video about seed germination - I've run into some roadblocks with finding resources for certain species. Berry maceration, liquid smoke, different scarification and stratification schedules--it's a mess. Where do you look to find resources on how to successfully germinate your native seeds?
Unfortunately there's no internet resource for that one. Gotta find your local experienced grower and ask them. Somebody should compile a database with anecdotes and written testimonials.
It's not an informational website, but Prairie Moon Nursery has a lot of good information. They provide general information, range maps, and germination instructions for the plants that they sell. At the very least it's worth a look if you can't find that information elsewhere.
Went out today and collected a bunch of evening primrose seeds and put em in a bag, in a couple weeks I'm going back to get aster and goldenrod! At least two different Solidagos.
I grabbed some mariposa lily seeds and some penstemon seeds yesterday. Will they actually germinate in my garden where I planted them? Who knows, but at least there's a chance!
I'd love to see a follow up with goldenrod deadheads. The last place we lived I had good luck transplanting some ditch 'rod but I've tried several times over the 10 years at our current place with seeds but have been thoroughly unsuccessful. (You could also run a sideline of regional culinary herbs and plants....)
*Also - with your tallgrass fetish you should make sure someday to come see the Kansas prairies like Maxwell and the National Preserve. Holler and we'll shoot you a jar of sandhill plum jelly.
Tony have you checked out Chiwaukee Prairie yet? It's a dune and swale topography prairie, lots of plants Swink and Wilhelm rated 9's and 10's. It's amazing this time of year. Fringed gentian, Grass of Parnassas, etc. Sorry for common names. just woke up.
I've been amazed at how thistle heads will mature despite being cut/harvested well-before their time. Certainly the non-native, invasive species seem capable of maturing to fruit that way.
my graj rafters hold a variety of brown paper shopping bags with seeds dryiing and waiting for spring ... mostly bergamot, coreopsis, blanket flower, tansy, and some sweet william ... mulleins abound here so dont need much help, multi stalked up to 7 feet tall, they remain a stalk for a couple years after they bloom and seed as the birds eat em
I do this all the time, I call it 'articact retrieval'. I'm currently trying to find some _cirsium discolor_ seeds. My neighbors get snotty with me about my milkeeed because I open all the seed pods on windy days. If I have to dig up all the burning bush starts from my yard due to their 'landscaping', they can deal with my asclepias.
Excellent I’d love to see some more seed collecting videos and maybe some stuff on how to get them growing. I’m planning on getting a bunch of seeds from around me this year to grow and put out in areas where I’m pulling out invasives mostly woodland stuff but thinking I might pop some stuff in the power line cut near me as well since right now it looks to be mostly full of invasive grasses, teasel, bird foot trefoil and and a few others I’m sure. I’d love to see more of our prairie savanna and meadow natives in there instead of the crap taking over from Asia and Europe even though many of them are also beautiful
Have you been up to Northern MN yet? I havent seen much of you traipsing through the North Woods. The North Shore is a highly fragile ecosystem with some real bangers
With all the concern with water here in southern california, do you think you could come and do a similar video here? LA is soon to outlaw ornamental grass lawns, i hear.

Very fine information to add to that wild thought garden naturalizing my mind and slowly expressing itself in my backyard. Enlightenment from one who is enlightened - may his messaging like pollen be widely dispersed.
Im on a foraging mission for these very seeds! Have a few locations im watching for mature seeds, so this is perfect. Thanks 😊 Question - was planning to direct sow/spread them as a border of my yard or corners, simple stuff. You said pots though? Is that needed by the plants, or just the brain dead selfish PITA neighbors? 😮
When is the best time to sow these after collection and what steps are needed to ensure germination? Hot water soak? Fall? Spring? Hot water soak and freezer overwinter?
Winter sow in milk jugs works great. There's tons of videos on it. I grew so many red & blue Lobelia, I was giving them away. All from collected seed in 2 jugs each color.

Well gosh darn, uploaded 1 min ago. Im always up for throwing native seeds all over the joint when I go on a " mental health " walk.

I'm taking all these good seeds of wisdom, and stuffing them in my heart. Good stuff

Loving the prairie series you got going 👍 Solidago canadensis is horribly invasive here in Norway, but nice to see it in its native environment!
It's awful here in Sweden as well!
the norse used to invade and now...the turn tables.
Same for the Netherlands. Solidago gigantea is an even more common invasive.
I have a little goldenrod patch in my garden, insects love it. I do remove the seed heads before the seeds are ripe though.
The "do you need a bag?" song, yes I do if it's full of good SEEDS!
I have been collecting native wildflower seeds from my land to make “flower bombs” to throw into ditches on my way to town. I dream of a drive to work that is lousy with native blooms.
This is exactly what I was going to lookup today. Could not have been better timed
I live near the Mackinaw river in central IL, love these flowers. Going for a walk through the prairie makes my brain less angry :)
I see new merchandise coming in the future… “Put ‘em in a Bag”
