« How do I take of the asters in my garden? Do I need to be "pinching back"...
I have Passiflora Incarnata growing at the moment so I was curious too. I found this info online:
Seed Collection: Leathery berries develop during a 2-3 month period after flowering. Check seeds when the berry is soft and yellowish. Mature seeds are brown. Seeds should be cleaned soon (remove the sticky aril fomr seeds) and stored in moist sphagnum sealed, refrigerated containers.
Also:
Seed Collecting: Allow unblemished fruit to ripen; clean and dry seeds
Unblemished fruit must be significantly overripe before harvesting seed; clean and dry seeds
Good luck :)
