I was happy today. I have this passion flower that blooms and feeds my butterflies that I allow to grow wild. Well right otu the back door even in the tall grass it made about 6 or 7 fruits. Last year I gathere d fruits when they had turne d from green to yellow and had to spend forever tryign to get each seed out of its googy sack. Well I been lettign this sit on the ground and went and looek dot day and some had turne d yellow and was all shriveld up I thought fudge soem critter doen ate the seeds all ready.

I picked up the collapsed pods and looek din side, and man oh man did the happy dance. Last year I notice d almost mircroscopic bugs in the bugs, and whatevr they are they ate al the gooey mess off and left the seeds. Was great all I had to do was dump the seed sout of the pod, bring in wash off and put on plate to dry. Was easy peasy as can be. I so happy. Gathere d the pod s that ha d opene d today and wil keep checkign everyday now to get the rest of the seeds form the othe rfruits.
