RE:Crestata Seed Pods

The pods are 12 to 15 mm long with around 10 to 20 seeds.
 
These were collected at my camper in Adams county. On my home page is a photo of them around a pine tree. I started with 6 fans around one tree 13 years ago. I now have them around three trees. Something to see in full bloom. I have given hundreds away. I fertilize once a year with 12-12-12 in the spring. They get extra water once in a while. Never dug just thinned.
 
 
At home they are planted between two houses 30 feet apart, very little wind, very few pods. One tree at the camper is in the open, lots of wind, lots of pods. A camper blocks the wind on the other two trees. Fewer pods, almost none on downwind side. In the past I have had lots of pods all the way around the tree. Maybe I had more wind those years.
 
Maybe thousands more than you Dennis. :-)
