I tried and cannot locate the seed either! Maybe I have to wait alot longer. They have been done blooming for quite awhile, though. Let me know if you ever find out. Heather

The seeds are tiny, very tiny like pwoder. They are in little bumps on the stem, but you have to break open the capsule to find them. I will be collecting mine as soon as it dries out enough. We've had rain everyday lately. I cut the whole spike, lay it on an open newspaper to dry then rub the stems to release the seeds.
