The bisexual flower should open tomorrow and you can assist it to make some seeds.

And then send me some seeds

They should germinate in the same tank if you don't suck them all up with the poo vac.

How long from pollination to viable seeds ?

And what is the best method of harvesting the seeds so I can plant them in another tank.

I have read that covering the pod with a stocking to contain the seeds works well.

Any ideas ?

I just let mine germinate in the same tank so not sure. Some of the aquatic plants have seeds that can't be dried out like your garden peas so I would transplant them as soon as the seeds fall off. A rich media and good light would be a start.

The seed pod on the first flower is swelling nicely

A second flower has opened and a third is on the way

Nice, I'm so happy this plant is becoming more and more available.. I thought we nearly lost it Hopefully you have lots of little baby barclaya's popping up soon.

Well done KP, it must be very happy to flower like that!

Once these start flowering they dont stop mines up to 7 flowers now , plant is huge thou the leaves on it are like 700mm+. Planted my first lot of seeds not sure if there going to be any good broke the pod off so cut it and scoped the seeds out and planted them. Picking the first flower pod that came up will brust this weekend. The stocking over the pod seems to be working well fingers crossed.Hows yours looking now K P ?

Mine is going nuts

Its putting up new leaves every few days and the larger leaves are now 600-700mm.

The fourth flower spike has just appeared and the first flower pod would now be about the size of my thumb nail.

How long did it take your first flower pod to be mature?

Its been about 4 weeks so far still hasnt burst thou but like your stated its the size of a thumb nail. That red one youve bidded on looks good i want it to may have to come to some sort of arrangement.
