Are these them? They're large but if you asked me ... they aren't any larger than the versicolor hybrids I had. I don't know if anyone picked up on this in the Preissel book ... but it doesn't make sense.

He says.... the arborea pods are 2 inches long by 2½ inches around...blah,blah,blah. Then he goes on to say the seeds are 4½ inches by 3 inches. How can the seeds be larger than the pods? How big are the seeds supposed to be? I'm confused. Are these arborea or not? The ruler in the pic is in cm.
