As I am new to flower cultivation I have this question I have found some very nice flowers but they are seeds. I did not realise they were seed grown or have i got it wrong!! again

I believe those are gazanias, possibly geums (sometimes it's hard to tell), but yes, those are usually seed grown. Garden centres will also carry them as started plants.

 I think a few trecks to garden centers are in need then

You'll be amazed at how many hubbies really get into the flower part. Most find it very relaxing from stressful jobs. Just watched a telly program where a big chunky pro (US) football player has turned his property into a beautiful oasis, and now has several equally massive pals deep into flower gardening. They still enjoy watching football games, but find checking out garden centres far more interesting these days. The guys do the buying, layout and grunt work while the wives end up with the deadheading and such.
