Monster Bird of Paradise Plant and Seeds

Tips, Tricks

1. You want to leave the dead flower on the plant for a long time, until it is really, really brown and dried. When you cut the stem, it should be dry and stiff. Pry the beak open with your thumbs and inside the pods should have started opening, spilling out the seeds
2. How do you collect the seeds? How old have to be that plant to start producing seeds? I have a Bird of paradise too but I don't know how to collect the seeds, can you explain me how to do that -thanks
