Thank You! Xeramtheum for sharing this video. I am constantly amazed by how different plants are from each other. Whether they are spiny, eating insects, scented, popping out seeds or just lovely to admire their beauty of uniqueness, all plants are awesome. Smiling

You're welcome Reine .. I use those organza bags you can get at the dollar tree stores. They are really a must for plants with exploding seed pods.

They really work well for hybridizing too .. I use them to sequester flowers that I'm going to hand pollinate and they come in a larger size as well.
