[Arisaema-l] seed pod question

[Nancy Robinson]

If the stalk is starting to fall over and not green any more I bring whole pod in to house and put in saucer.  Keeps the birds and mice from getting the seeds until I am ready to plant or share.  Nancy   Tennessee

>From my limited experience Charles,I would have to say yes, A.ringens certainly does turn red and so do most others I have seen.There are a few that turn orange more than red.I generally wait until the fruit are ready to fall from the stalk before harvesting the seeds from the berries.

Subject: [Arisaema-l] seed pod question Lately I have been collecting seed, mostly for the AEG Seed Exchange. All my American species' seed pods turn red when they are ripe for picking and cleaning. This year I have several Asian ones that made/are making seed for the first time, including ringens and sikokianum. Do ALL arisaema berries turn red when they are ripe, or do some stay green?   Thanks. Charles HunterSmyrna, Georgia z7 USA
