I was successful in making 9 pods with my plant and I am still waiting two more months for it to ripen.

Awesome! I half expect them to blast though.
At least I know it's blooming size.

This plant isn't established, and I'm putting it on a new mount soon.
So no seed pods for now.
But that sure sounds like a fun project down the line.

I just recalled seeing this flower pictured in the background on some of my favorite latin sweets all through out my childhood. It all makes sense!
