Where Are The Seeds On Quaker Ladies/bluets

Question

I would like to know how to collect seeds from bluets. I have a lot on my yard and I cannot figure out how they produce seeds.

Answer 1

Once pollen from a male stamen lands on the stigma of the female reproductive organs it will develop into the seeds within the ovary of the plant. Usually on the bottom of the flower.

Once this ripens, it will turn colors and dry. You will need to harvest before they fall out of the pod.

This article will give more information on the plant:
