hi
i have cosmos flowers growing and they are doing great but im just wondering if anyone knows if i can get seeds from my flowers, and how do i do this?????
i have been dead heading them and they are still in full flower, so just not sure what next to do
if anyone has any tips , i would love to hear them

don't dead head them but let them set seed and when the pods are a light straw colour and dry ( hahahahah!!) cut the stemm off and put them in a paper bag (pod down ) and lett gravity take it's course.

Yup, that's what I did last year. You can keep deadheading for a while if you like, just stop when you want to start collecting the seeds.
