Lüthy Salsify, donated to Pro Specie Rara by Frau M. Lüthy in 1992, has been cared for by the Roughwood Seed Collection for over 20 years. See the whole story and order the seeds at roughwoodseedcollection.org. The flowers only open in the morning, track the sun, and close by the afternoon. If you have my 2015 Seed Keeping calendar look at May and you will see the next stage when they go to seed like beautiful gigantic dandelions. You have two more days to help us save our seed collection: https://www.generosity.com/community-fundraising/roughwood-seed-collection #lüthysalsify #luthisalsify #prospecierara #swissheirloom #frenchheirlooms #tragopogonporrifolius #roughwoodseedcollection
