I have planted a few zinnias here and there over the years. However, this year, my husband and I planted a big bed full and they went crazy! We got so many compliments and people couldn't believe we grew them from seed. I have harvested a big cookie sheet full of seed heads and was just sitting down to work them when I thought I better look for a video to see what to do. Thank you! I love your happy attitude.
Awww Hello Brenda i’m so happy the algorithm sent you to my video. It sounds like you had a beautiful display of zinnias this year and an even better harvest. YAY!!! I am so happy for you!!! Happy seed sorting and thank you for taking the time to visit me! ❤️👍🥰Liz
Hello Penelope and thank you for watching! I'm glad you like that trick. I use that method when harvesting and cleaning all my seeds. Thank you for your nice comment and have a beautiful day!
Oh wow you are still growing nasturtiums??? Crazy how our zone are so different. I love collection nasturtium seeds. . . those are alot of fun how they just pop off. And yes. . . gotta be ugly for a while! hahaha That's funny but true.
Hello there Pauletta and thank you for watching! God blessing me every day. He is so generous with his creation. May our Heavenly Father bless you as well my friend.
YAY that's so awesome! I saved some and sprinkled some back in the dirt. I also started a whole new round of zinnias last month so I am about to have a whole new round of blooms any day now.
Hi Karen. . . Oh my goodness I am getting SOOOOO excited! hahahaha Every day I get a couple more. I run and tell my husband "someone new subscribed" like a little child. You are so cute to notice that. I feel like I have a cheer leader on my team rooting for me. How kind you are. I sincerely appreciate your encouragement Karen : )
@@GardenHappy Ha ha, that's super sweet that you and the Mr are close like that. I too, am very fortunate to have a husband who is also my best friend. (Just noticed I double posted, oops, oh well) Keep going, you are doing great!🌺🌻🌼 :)

That is a very good question! In my opinion I dont think the flower would produce good seeds once it is picked because the flower will no longer be able to devote energy into the seed production. The sun plays a huge roll in that. Once inside I dont think that would work. Just like spring bulbs soak up energy from the sun through the leaves then transfer it to the bulb for next year. Once the flower is picked i think the production of seeds would stop. Great question though! Thank you for the comment.
Hi Reneasha thank you for stopping by. You can try if you garden zone is warm. I planted a second round of flowers in my garden and they are about to bloom now. So it depends on what area you are in. I would try it though. . . what do you have to lose? a few seeds??? Go for it : )
@@reneashadana9425 YES!!! Do it!!! I am so excited for you!!! I think Zinnias are the easiest flowers to grow and they are the most beautiful and interesting in detail. You can grow wrong (pun intended) hahaha
That is very interesting. I wish I could see a picture of them. Maybe your zinnias went to seed early and the petals fell off? Well at least you’re getting seeds for next year. Maybe it’s not too late and you could plant some of them now and see if you can get more zinnias before summer is over just a thought.
Hi BethKelley, It’s definitely easier to leave them all together so that is always a wonderful option if you have the space in your storage. Thank you for taking the time to visit me. ❤️👍🥰Liz

It's our first time growing Zinnias this year and we sowed them late. We can't wait to harvest seeds from them just like you do :D
YAY!!! I am so happy for you!!! The seeds look like little spears. . . so cute! I hope you have a successful harvest! And thank you for watching.
This was my first year as well! I have 3 that just bloomed. I think they may be one of my new favorite flowers🌸 you will love them!
@@stephaniemartin8301 They are definitely addicting. For good reason : )
I’ve been out collecting my nasturtiums seeds this morning . Gotta take the ugly to get the pretty next year 🌸🍃🐝

Hello there Pauletta and thank you for watching! God blessing me every day. He is so generous with his creation. May our Heavenly Father bless you as well my friend.
Great video! I love harvesting seeds, I was in the garden yesterday cutting off the dried flowers to save for next year.
YAY that's so awesome! I saved some and sprinkled some back in the dirt. I also started a whole new round of zinnias last month so I am about to have a whole new round of blooms any day now.
Very beautiful flowers
Thanks you so much Lahiru I appreciate your kind words. Have a beautiful day!
Very clever... great video! 🌼 🌸 🏵 🌼
Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate you for watching!
Thank you! My first challenge will be to identify the flower seeds.
They are so easy to identify. . . they look like little spears. . . so cute and funny. Thanks for watching and have an amazing day my friend.
Hi Liz, you're almost to 1000. I'm gonna go ahead and say, 'Woo hoo!"😊

Great information thank you!
Thank you Ginger I appreciate your comment. Have a beautiful day my friend.
If they are pollinated, then picked for flower arrangement...can you save the seeds after they dry? Will seeds be good?
That is a very good question! In my opinion I dont think the flower would produce good seeds once it is picked because the flower will no longer be able to devote energy into the seed production. The sun plays a huge roll in that. Once inside I dont think that would work. Just like spring bulbs soak up energy from the sun through the leaves then transfer it to the bulb for next year. Once the flower is picked i think the production of seeds would stop. Great question though! Thank you for the comment.
@@GardenHappy Thank you!!
How many chicken do you have ? I keep hearing a a roaster .
I have 2 hens and a rooster named "Mohawk" They are so much fun. I started with 6 but I am down to 3 now.
Can u plant right after harvesting ?

@@GardenHappy great , I'm in Trinidad so I guess it will be fine. Im new to flower gardening. Thanks so much .
@@reneashadana9425 YES!!! Do it!!! I am so excited for you!!! I think Zinnias are the easiest flowers to grow and they are the most beautiful and interesting in detail. You can grow wrong (pun intended) hahaha
I was wondering the same thing😊
@@GardenHappy Thank you.
Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ dear
Thank you so much A1 Garden 😊 I appreciate you for watching!
Something keeps eating the pedals of my zinnias. So looks like imma have to buy more. 😢 thanks for the video
Hmmm that is very interesting! If the pedals have round notches in them that could be from leaf cutter bees. ❤️👍🥰
@GardenHappy but the seeds would still be there? I did check one. And it looked like seeds. Without the pedal
That is very interesting. I wish I could see a picture of them. Maybe your zinnias went to seed early and the petals fell off? Well at least you’re getting seeds for next year. Maybe it’s not too late and you could plant some of them now and see if you can get more zinnias before summer is over just a thought.
I leave it all together but it takes up a lot of room.

Hi Karen I am so excited!!! YAY! Thank you for cheering me on and being a big inspiration : )
