okay, where are the seeds?

16 years ago

I have about ten hardy hibiscus plants.Some are hybrids loke fireball,blue river 2, ann arundal,clown and lady baltimore. Others are of unknown origin, but nice.The flowers bloom and the pods dry up but I never see seeds in any of them.Are they that small or am i doing something wrong?

when the pods dry up all the way- dry and dark brown, te seed pod will pop open and you will seed the small black seeds, it takes a few weeks. be patient, i always deadheaed mine and wondered why I wasn't getting seeds. this year I am leavingthe seed pods on the plant and tey are drying up nicely.

What clor do you have? I have Disco Belle, Moy Grande, Pink SChnapps and Lord Baltimore if yo want to trade later.

BTW...I am sending you an email...I have a questio for you.
