...and they're slowly seeding around..........and the seed I collected is growing on really well, maybe a few flowers from them next year.

I have seedlings coming from mine too Wagger. Do you know how long they take to get to flowering size?

Not certain, Beattie but three that seeded in a pot with a paeonia in and they flowered in the second year after I noticed them.

Ah, not TOO long to wait then. I have seeds from last year's flowers germinated all over the place - they're very welcome!

They seem to pick the best spots for themselves too - always look great.
