Hi erani, I don't know anything about saving seed from succulents but I'm sure someone like Eli or steve will know. Your little daisy type flowers look like some sort of chrysanthemum or marguerite maybe, if you want to save the seed from them I'd cut the dried flower heads off & put them in a paper bag (not plastic or they could rot)& keep them somewhere cool & the seeds will eventually fall out into the bag. You can sow the seeds then early next spring. With tulips some people dig them up & let them dry off & then store them in paper bags or boxes somewhere cool & dry until planting time in winter or you can just leave them where they are & they will come up again next year but the flowers may not be as good next time, some people just throw them away & buy new but I usually leave mine where they are.

Do you know if it is a Sedum Erani and which one? many of them do self seed and also as you probably know will also root if you break/cut a piece off
