Honeywort

Soaking the seeds overnight before planting will speed germination. Seed can be collected and stored for the following year. Check the ground beneath large plants every few days to collect, gathering the seeds as they fall (if you can see them on the ground). Or harvest whole blooming branches, bringing them inside to dry in a paper or cloth bag (to contain the seeds that otherwise would be shot all over when the pods burst). In mild climates honeywort will reseed readily, but in the Midwest, the seeds tend to sprout in the fall and are killed by the first freeze. Volunteer seedlings can be transplanted, but they will suffer some transplant shock and will require a few weeks to re-establish.
