Re: blackberry lily question


Earlier this year, someone ( Cheryl?) had a blackberry lily. Since this
is my first season with it, wondering about what appear to be seed pods.
One has opened and of course those lovely black berries are showing.
Question is, are they seeds, as in I better do something or the entire
area will be taken over with tons of this plant? Or is it more of an
ornamental type berry and I should just enjoy them.

I have lots of these and the berries seem to remain on of the pod for awhile, rather than all falling to the ground. There is some reseeding, of course, but it's not that aggressive and unwanted seedlings are easily removed.
