Every year when my marigolds etc.. dry to seed I save them. I have put them in jars and labeled them for the next year. I haven't bought seed for quite a few years for some of my annuals. You can always take cuts from your perennials or root cuts to add to your garden. You can always swap with friends also.

Good tip especially now that our thoughts turn to our gardens this spring. i will have to start to do this in future as my garden is totoally bear and it will cost me far to much to buy plants. Thanks for contributing.
