| Hi donnabaskets, I have never saved seed from ornamental grasses, but found some info via search. Fountain Grass ~ Pennisetum-It is important to note for collection that seeds will not come readily off the spike if they are immature. For collection grasp your hand around the base of the mature inflorescence and in a clasping motion pull upwards and strip the seeds from the spike. Ripe seeds come off very easily. ...from Here I assume you 'might' have to strip them off of the faded seed spike.
