Hi Kitty,
    They are unusual, indeed. Pods form very early in the year but do not
mature until about now. Mine got on the dry side during July and I just now
collected my pods. Be on the look out as they will separate like molds.
Exactly in half along the seams. Seeds are paper like with a brown bump in
the middle. Bit like a round hosta seed. Keep a close eye out as they are
due any time now... the pods do not necessarily turn brown as an indicator.
