    Can you put a photo on for ID, click on the camera icon.

    if it doesn’t work you may have to reduce the size of the photo.

  • I will try and attach photo again. The seeds are bright red, 1.8 cm long, and in groups of 2 in each pod. image

    Pods are red. And about 20 pods are attached to each other.

    Magnolia seeds. Sow now, cover with grit and leave outside - somewhere where the squirrels won't find them!

  • Many thanks.  I shall try and deter the squirrels, but they are have an orgy among the tulip bulbs at the moment.

    Put some close chicken wire over your pots of bulbs,
