Well, I think its to early to tell but,I was excited about it so wanted to share.Its the 3rd plant that I have had flower so you could understand the excitement.Depending on if its male or female I could have pollen to give or need.Let me know

Tom looks like you have a few there that look fat enough to be having seed, , depending on the type of plant they seed pods grow in different ways some long elongated, other short and fat , and all in between , so recon you will have a few there tat will make some viable seed ,all though usually fat pod mean small /short seed may have to pick out the ones that look to have larger embryos , hard to tell how long they take to ripen , depends of climate temps sun , lower temps less sun longer is the norm , 4 to 6 months
