I've never noticed seed heads on my hostas before, until just now. I've picked them and put them in a safe place, not like my Peony Tree seed pod  Just had a google and the first site I came across gave this info www.hostaplants.co.uk/hostas_from_seed.htm sounds a peice of cake doesn't it, has anyone tried them from seed. I quite like the sound of this " Growing hostas from seed can be real fun to bring on your own unique plant as every seedling will be different" |

Well I've had Hostas for years Missy and this is the first time I've seen seed. I've got 5 pods, I'll see how they dry and if they produce lots of good seed I'll send you some to try if you like  |

Did you get any to germinate at all SO. I checked the pods today Missy, still green, I'll keep you posted though.
Anyone else tried them from seed ?

Found the seed pods in the shed today Missy, all mouldy  I could spit as I'd forgotten all about them. |
