Here's a 'not so good' photo of a nemesia seed pod. They are quite papery, about the size of a pencil eraser, but flatter. They have three points on the end, like a child's picture of a tulip, and they are filled with flat, fuzzy seeds. I've never grown any that don't put out seeds, but I've grown all mine from seed, so I can't speak for other cultivars. Even if you get seeds, some hybrids may not be viable or come back true.

Nemesia do extremely well in our climate... mild summers. I grow several different colors. I like Carnival mix because the colors are so eyecatching and the blooms are large. I also grow red/white and blue/white.
