Hmmm. Dave (or anybody?) we've received a message at the helpdesk that C. radicans does not produce seed pods like this. It's been several years (and several houses) since I had one growing in my garden, so I don't recall, but I thought they did have some kind of seed pod. However, the question has been raised, so....can anyone confirm or deny?
Thanks!

This site agrees:

[HYPERLINK@theseedsite.co.uk]

They don't have a picture, but they say: "Seeds are flat, brown, winged. Many seeds in a pod."

I just took this picture of the Campsis Grandiflora, and it has a bunch of seed pods too. Dave's hyperlink shows exactly what the seeds look like inside.
