I finally got a thunbergia seed from hand pollination. Do I break this apart for smaller seeds?

No, that is the seed. Was there only one in the pod? I picked some yesterday and I have them in a bowl with a cover. Cause when they open they explode and the seeds fly all over the place. LOL

Yes. Are there usually more than one? If so, how many? I have tons of vines on my mailbox, so I have to check every few days, rather than waiting for them to drop or "explode". This is my first thunbergia seeds that I picked, but for my Spanish Flag Vine or MG (and they are all intertwine on the same mailbox), I pick them when the outside cover is brown and they have that papery feel to them.

There are two per pod. Here is a link to a seed page that shows some info for you.
