I have been given loads of seeds should I start them now? In pots or in the ground? I want to use them for attracting insects and nitrogen fixing

Bearing in mind that seeds are falling from ripe pods to the ground about now...... I'd say you could sow them directly.

Tried and failed many times

But they may not germinate until the spring, so don't start worrying about them
