Hey Crazy Franny!

Here's something I found:

cosmos

With roses, you want to collect the rose 'hips' There's a lot of info out there - try searching 'propagating rose hips'

Impatiens Looks like this is a tricky one to collect - you might want to put a little baggie underneath the pod when you see it forming.

Hmm that's about all I can find tonight...I hope that's helped a little!

I have found this one very helpful. I have to look up the scientific name inorder to find the pictures but it's worth it to get such good pictures of where the seeds are located and what they look like.

I think there's an article on here somewhere. Or, maybe it's a link - I've forgotten.
