This isn't a legitimate entry for this competition! I had my photo in mind when I suggested  a 'class' of best seed head - but I'd completely forgotten one obvious thing - that it had to be something grown by myself - of course!! Doh! So it absolutely doesn't count, as i found it on a mountainside.  But I thought I'd share it anyway.

my legitimate (!) entry of a local shelling bean that I grow.  I love the range of colours and patterns.  All the original seed came from one elderly man in our village, and I have kept seed for the last three years, choosing a nice range of the colours, and so getting different flowers as well.
