Ushadi,

I have many fotos of flowers but sometimes there were flowers and no pods and sometimes there were just pods and no flowers. I like collecting pods and seeds apart from flowers and like to see what the sapling look like.Some pods are very interesting looking. While collecting seeds, i am happy, if i am alone. If my husband is with me, the things are very different. :-((( That was the case in my last trip to India.

I sow the seeds normally in march and after mid may we plant them in the garden. The advantage of getting to know the saplings is that i don't throw away the saplings from my garden thinking they are weed. I don't have a wishlist of flowers. Btw. I collected seeds of aristolochia and they are growing well some 8cm now. It takes long, three years till they get flowers.

So let us wait.

Yes, good idea, Nalini

One question though, I just thoiught of it as I read your other thread first... did not you take pictures of the plants and pods ... or have a wish list of flowers you wanted ....


or was this seedpod collection totally random, as you saw the pods you just picked them?


any inkling why you wanted pods from each of those particular plants/trees? if you have pictures of flowers // trees// shrubs and or a wish list you could narrow the choices...

just a thought...

logical though...
give it a try...

good luck

    Thank you all for taking so much efforts for identifying the seeds.
    Perhaps in the coming spring, will have to wait for at least 6
    months :-((, i shall try to germinate the seeds and let you know
    what comes out.
    Perhaps then we have more information.
