[Arisaema-l] Arisaema ringens seed pod question

[Pat Taylor]

Looks to me like some of those seeds will be viable once mature - around Oct-Nov - the bigger ones.

I have 3 pods - all grown from 2009 seed - A.flavum A.dilitatum A.erubescens - hoping all will mature.

Subject: [Arisaema-l] Arisaema ringens seed pod question
 

 
Of my three mature Arisaema ringens plants that bloomed this
year, two are making pods that have a few large berries, but the rest looks
like one of those non-fertile pods that withers before the plant goes over. See
attached picture.
 
My third ringens had a non-fertile pod that has already
withered. No pods on any last year. 
 
I have not had pods like this before. Is it common? Am I
likely to get viable seed from the large berries, or will the whole pod likely just
wither?
