Hi Guys,
Anyone identify what these small "PoDs" are?

TIA

Sorry, what does PoD stand for? I'm a total numpty with acronyms.

Looks like Wallflowers and those are seed pods - although they need to dry off before the seeds form inside them.

They are sweet william flowers and as my memory serves me they are not seed pods, the seeds come from within the flowers them selves

Seed Pod............but I'm no good when it comes to flowers.

After an extensive googlin session, I can't find a yellow Sweet William so would be inclined to go with VC's suggestion.

Thanks to veggiechicken and to Bigmallly for the extra bit of info.

I wondered why they were flowering and the other sweet Williams were not :-)

Ah, thought that you were using an abreviation for something P... of D....... and was trying all sorts of different words, none of which made sense.

Re the original query, I think it's a wallflower too, have a load in the garden that look just like that.

[veggiechicken]

Its a pleasure NWIW. Wallflowers and Sweet Williams are lovely flowers to have in your garden

Soz, sometimes I make things far more confusing than they should be. On a plus point, you have some lovely wallflowers now and some sweet williams to come

They are wallflowers, I have loads of them I just love the scent. You are supposed to pull the seed pods off to encourage more flowering.
