I also asked this on the seed collecting forum - but just in case some of you knew. . . the plant file says to let the seed pods dry on the bleeding heart plant - but they have already fallen off - they are green, not dry. About 3/4 inch long, and narrow. If there are viable seeds they must be very, very tiny. I thought that the pods were the seeds!

So - have any of you collected bleeding heart seed before and what should the pod look like?

Thanks Anita - sounds like my plants are not old enough to generate viable seeds yet.
