My agapanthus are done blooming, and have what seem to be big seed pods where the flowers used to be. Can I harvest these and plant them?
Agapanthus from seed?
Wait 'til the pods are splitting open......then cut the pod off and empty the black seeds into a ziplock with a piece of paper or tape that contains the date and info about the plant you collected from (believe me,...you'd be glad you did this....if you've ever NOT done it before) this all to do ....if you intend to keep the seeds long.
I'd plant the seeds right away - germination rate seems to be best when the seeds are "fresh"(days old) - don't plant too deep...I just sprinkle on top of good potting soil - lightly scratch the surface and water in gently - don't let them dry out completely....but don't water constantly either
hope this helps - btw, it takes about 2 years of good care before the seeds will grow to flowering plants
Thank you!!
