Gardening in Shade

Japanese toad lily

21 years ago

I bought a yellow japanese toad lily (tricyrtis latifolia) a few weeks back and now it looks like it's forming seed pods. Can I expect viable seed from this plant? Does it reseed well, or is it one of those that take a long time to germinate? Anyone know what I can expect from this plant?

I've had several varieties. Some come back in the same spot. Others have moved just a little, whether from runners or seeds, I don't know. Some were never seen again after the first year. Tojen and white towers are the two that are reliable for me.
