Seed of the Week: Golden Alyssum

Our mystery seeds from last week were from a golden alyssum or basket of gold, Aurinia saxatilis.

The plant is a perennial with bright, golden yellow flowers.

It’s a rather small plant, only about a foot high.

It is often used in rock gardens.

The empty seed heads are add interest to a garden as well.

Does golden alyssum grow where you live?

Mystery Seed of the Week 74

These seeds are also from a plant that grows in Colorado.

The seeds are carried in a small flat circular structure that looks to me like a tiny window.

Have you ever seen seeds like this? Do you have any idea what the plant might be?

Edit:  The answer is now posted.
