Liatris Seed Identification and Collection

Finding Seeds on Blazing Star

After liatris blooms fade, dried flower heads contain seeds. Strip dried material onto white plate to reveal seeds. Reference photos show seed head structure and individual seeds for identification.

Collection Method

• Wait for complete drying on plant
• Strip onto white surface for visibility
• Separate seeds from chaff
• Store cool/dry for spring sowing

Visual references help distinguish seeds from spent flower parts.
