Love in a Puff, also known as Balloon Vine or Heartseed, is an annual vine that carries seed in ‘puffs’ and looks great in arrangements. The vine can be grown on a trellis but I just had mine out in the flower field this year and it did fine. 
You can see it here in one of my favorite arrangements from this year. It’s very delicate and whimsical. It adds an light-airy feel to any bouquet. 
I purchased my seeds from Floret Flowers in the spring but will be saving my own seed going forward.
You can save Love in a Puff seed by waiting for the balloons or puffs to turn brown. Each puff will have three seeds inside, all with a white heart on them (hence ‘love’).
