| Below you can see a seed pod for violets that
grow in our yard in middle Tennessee. Each pod contains between 10 and 65
tear drop shaped seeds. These seeds measured .050" in diameter and were
.100" long.
An amazing thing about these seeds is that they don't just fall from the
pod to the ground. At least some "pop" almost like popcorn and are shot
from the pod. We observed some seeds flying more than 2 feet! |
