Saving zinnia seeds is easy!
1️⃣ Let flower heads dry on the stem.
2️⃣ Snip them off once they’re brown and papery.
3️⃣ Store whole heads in a paper bag or shoebox. Just be sure to keep them away from moisture and to allow the flower beads to fully dry to avoid mold. 

Next year, just crumble them and sow—the gift of this year’s blooms keeps on giving 🌼💛
