Does anyone know what this plant is? The green pods/casings have lots of small brown seeds inside. Thanks, any advice is appreciated!

Hmmmm! I've never grown iris from seeds. Do you think it's hard to do? How long does it take? I usually just thin out the corms and replant the extra. dooley

Gosh Dooley, I don't know if it's difficult or not. I use those seed pods with stem for "dry arrangements" at home and along with the dead leaves for the paths in the lotties. None have ever popped-up in the paths though. The Crocosmia lucifers have though. I'm like you, I just lop off a bit of the root ball and plant that where I want the next stand to be. That has worked every time.

Definitely Iris seed pods. It takes them a long time to get large enough to bloom.
