There is a seed bud developing on my Pachycentra glauca. It's due to drop in about a week. Not every flower produces a seed bud. In the 2 ½ years this is the third seed pod to develop. The first seed pod produced 7 seeds and they all sprouted and grew. Here's a photo of a 2” pot with 2 plants – a seeded growth (sowed Dec.15, 2015) and a broken mother branch that I stuck into the pot to see what would happen. The planting medium is chopped NZ sphagnum moss. Within 2 days you can seed the seeds sprouting. The second seed pod that developed I stored for a month or two and then sent out to Justintime and no germination happened so that tells me these seeds are time sensitive. Also one of the first generation is producing a seed pod. Should be ready in about 2-3 weeks. I will be posting a wanted to trade listing for these seed pods.

Mine is flowering too. I tried to pollinate it yesterday. Hopefully I'll get some seeds. So far no seeds without pollinating.

I think they're self pollinating. A hit and miss. I tried to manually pollinate but it didn't work ever.
