Saving Hibiscus or Daylily Seeds

Saving Hibiscus or Daylily SeedsTo get the identical plant, you actually need to divide the plant. If you save the seeds, the flowers may be different than the parent plant.

Here is how to save the seeds:

  1. After the flower drops, a brown pod remains.

  3. Inside the pod is a container that the seeds are in.

  5. When you break open the container, the seeds will come out. I put mine on a paper napkin.

In my area (NY), the best time to plant is the fall.

Of course, you want to make sure bugs don't take a free ride. To divide the plant, just take a shovel and cut all the way down to the roots. Separate the plant and dig a hole deep enough for it. That's all there is to it.

This is true about the seeds being different than the parent. I have a devils trumpet that was a beautiful purple with double flowers. I planted the seeds the next year some were cream colored and some were just purple striped.

They were still pretty but not what I expected.
