Thank you estación seca.
The flowers showed black/grey parachutes already on some flowers that is why I thought I was on track but not so.
Have broken open the wilted flowers to find the seed as described but a lot of immature looking seeds that have white deformed looking parachutes.
We live and learn. Picked a seed that I would not be upset experimenting with so as to get the idea of collecting seed.
Am reading that some seeds loose the viability when the pod bursts. So they cut the immature seed pod opened and this seed was viable for some Tillandsia's.
Very confusing, reading heaps. Will get it to work but time is need.And a helping hand as well thank you.
