Anthurium pedatoradiatum seedpod question

I have been growing a lot of anthuriums from seed over the past couple of years. I have grown A. vittarifollium, A. gracilis, A. "unknown" from the seeds that my big unknown birdnest dropped that seem to have been pollinated by another species, and have just planted some A. plowmanii seeds.

All those seeds have been ripe and red and soft.

I have 3 seedpods at present on my A. pedatoradiatum. They have been on there for quite a while, and have never turned red. They are still green and rather hard.

Does this mean that they are not viable? Or do some species produce seeds that don't turn red and soft? Should I plant them anyway?

They are not ripe yet. I found out that, with some Anthuriums, the berries can take a year or more to ripen fully. Patience is required with these long termers. The berries look healthy so you just have to wait some more. I'll be interested to see what color they finally ripen to.

Thanks Lari Ann! I was hoping that they would be able to be harvested and planted. Pedatoradiatum is just unusual enough and hard to find that I would really like to propagate it by seed. Sometimes I don't bother...I mean, I have, what? about 19-20 nice sized plants of the unknown birdnest anthurium that I will probably trade away or give away at some point, because I certainly don;t have room for them all!! But with some plants I'd really like to have a few more! I have 2 pedatoradiatums and they are among my faves

My pedatoradiatums are from a small plant that survived hurricane Andrew; the plant was just about gone and I managed to bring it back from the abyss. Now I have a couple of nice sized plants but they don't like cold and don't flower too often. I think I did get a cross to work with faustomirandae; at least, I have one seedling that looks like it could only have had pedatoradiatum as one of the parents. The only other parent I have that could give a lobed leaf to faustomirandae is podophyllum, and I already have a hybrid involving that plant. It is distinctively different, with leaves like giant maple leaves.

I have podophyllum, pedatoradiatum, polydactylon and polyschistum (sp?) for lobed leaves. They are all located in different parts of the GH, I don;t think any of them could have pollinated the pedatoradiatum unless it had help (by insect or tree frog vector). Polydactylon has never bloomed, but I guess it is probably my favorite. I love that it really climbs. The podophyllum and polyschistum are also trying to climb up the GH wall but the polydactylon is REALLY a climber and has gone up a totem very well. Everyone who sees it wants it.

I have been trying to locate a peltigerum. Its one I really really want, but have not been able to find at a reasonable cost yet.
