Name the Seeds!

Seeds handicrafts

Can you name all the seeds in the photograph? I will help you with the one my finger is pointing to: Chile Cobanero. You may need to click on the photo above to zoom into the details. Good luck!

Numerical Sidenote: For many Western cultures the number 13 is bad luck; thus Tuesday 13th, Friday 13th. For the Maya, the number 13 was good luck. Check the 13 Moon Mayan Calendar for more details on the number 13.

    Oh my gosh, are they really made of seeds? I can’t possibly tell if you didn’t say so!

    I see corn, pumpkin, maize, peas…and then I’m lost. I hope you will tell us tomorrow. I love this photo.

    These are so cool! Do they serve a purpose other than decorative? They are very interesting. Happy Valentine’s Day from East Texas.

    Are there beans too? I see sunflower seeds, corn, chickpeas, kidney beans, lentils…? Did I come close? One in the background looks like acorn tops.

    They are so neat! Inspiring. (I’m a crafty girl — mostly in my head though.) The only one I recognize is the one with the sunflower seeds arranged like blossoms. Don’t know what are the center seeds though.

    Ok, I think I see sunflower seeds, maize, lentils(peas), 2 kinds of beans- white and red, pumpkin seeds, macadamia nuts, possibly cantaloupe seeds, acorns or at least acorn tops, and possibly sunflower kernels. How many did I get?

    I can’t give a (real) name to none of this… but I love this shot! ;)

    Actually, you guys did much better than I, three or four seeds I can recognize. Thanks to Jerry for naming many of the seeds.
