Ranunculus andersonii revisited (depending on info I can get from this forum)

Visitor's picture


On March 28, I posted a photo of Ranunculus andersonii in peak flowering form. However, there were many other plants in flower that were beyond their peak flowering such as the one in the attached photograph. Our weather will be in the low to mid 60s for a few weeks with intermittent rain.

My question is, given the above information, how long will it be until the seed on these will be ready to harvest? I know that the seed must be collected while still in the green stage provided that the seed will easily detach from the seed head.

Is there anyone in the forum who would like to venture a guess as to when the seed may be ready for harvest? The drive to the area is about one hour and I'd like to make as few trips as possible considering the price of gas in our area.

Thank you and Kind Regards,

James
