Cephalotus seeds


Question
I have successfully pollinated my Cephalotus flowers.  When could I collect the seeds?  Do I wait for the flowers to completely dry first?  How many seeds might I get from each flower?

Answer
Hi Henry,

If your Cephalotus flowers were successfully pollinated, seeds develop rather quickly; in a week or two.  They are little fuzzy seeds that accumulate on the flower head.  You tend to get about 10 to 15 seeds from a flower, sometimes less.

Good Growing!
