Hi,
Where the flower once was, a seed pod will develop. Sometimes on daffs, no pod develops. The seedpod swells up, you should be able to tell seeds are developing : )
The seeds will get ripe by the time the foliage is going to die back.
It does take a long time for them to flower from seed probably at least 5 years.
