How to do it
-
Cut the seedheads from your allium plants as they start to break open. Bring them indoors and let them dry out before tapping out the seeds and storing them in labelled paper envelopes.
"If the weather is damp when you pick the seedheads from your alliums, they can be hung in a paper bag in the airing cupboard to dry out thoroughly before storing."
