Seed pod for Datura Metel
by MOLLYBEE Jul 26, 2002 12:17 PM
This pod opened this morning to reveal the seeds. When the pod opens like this, you should cut the pod off and put it in a cup or a bag, and let it continue to dry naturally. The seeds will eventually fall out into the container.

Even as an infant, this plant puts out a tremendous bloom. Notice the 12" ruler for reference.

We have always called this plant 'moonvine' because it blooms beginning at sunset, but after a local news story that showed seeds and what local kids were doing with them, I had to do a search, and sure enough, it's NOT moonvine! Not sure what to call them now, as 'jipsonweed' is just not as romantic!

If you are happy enough to live in a zone in which Datura metel is hardy, then this is what it looks like in the spring. :) This plant just came back from the root about 2 weeks ago, and look how big it is already!! I expect blooms within a couple more weeks.

A 'small' sample of just how large the roots of this Datura get. Long and deep. Don't plant it unless you intend to keep it for a while. ;-)

by taterslady Oct 10, 2007 5:59 AM
Harvested & dried seeds form seed pod. Try to harvest seed pod as soon as it splits as not to lose any seeds.
