Are they easy to grow from seed Pitta.? I got one late last year and the grower advised cutting it back to the cadoux to get many branches...and it is just starting to sprout.

Those seed pods are incredible! My plants have never set seed pods...even though it blooms profusely off-and-on throughout the year.

How do u get ur plant to produce seeds..mine is over 15 years old and has beautiful flowers but never produced any seed pods...what am I doing wrong...

The conditions have to be hot and in full sun for them to set seed. Where are you growing your plant?

My oldest plant set seed pods for the first time last year. My plant is 10 years old.
