Cobaea Scandens

Hi Everyone, I grew the climber Corbaea Scandens (purple) this year and was thrilled with the result so I'm definitely going to do so next year; I want to save my own seed, the plants have stopped flowering now and there are a few 'plum' sized pods and having just squashed and peeled one apart, I now know the seeds are in there. The thing is the pods and seeds are still really green - I'm worried that if we get a heavy frost it may kill the whole thing off, so should I pick a couple of the pods and bring them in the dry and brown off or leave them on the plant? - hope that makes sense!! Any advice, as always will be much appreciated, thank you, Hey Jude.

Thanks Catlar - obvious really but I've had a horrid cold all week and it's definitely affected my brain and I never thought of that!!!!

If you are going to bring in some pods to dry, it can help the seeds ripen if they are still attached to a fair bit of stem. You can hang them up then too
