The tiny seeds are inside the seed pods.
It's fun saving your own seeds whenever possible and see what grows out of them.
Sometimes the plant you get is identical to the mother plant, other times somewhat different if the mother plant was a hybrid.

The Australian Banksia accumulates seeds in its canopy, releasing them only when conditions are suitable for establishing new plants. The delayed release of this mature seed bank is known as serotiny, and can require the preservation of seeds inside their pods for several years, somehow secured against damage from high levels of UV radiation, predation, changing weather conditions and microbial attack. Release is then triggered, often by the normally destructive agency of bushfires.
The Australian children's author, May Gibbs, featured villains called Big, Bad Banksia Men whose scary looks were modelled on these strange growths.
The rogues gallery of Cantina aliens were always my favourite characters. I'd like to think that if I was a second generation Star Wars fan, I'd feel the same way about the Pod Racer pilots in Ep1
Orange Pod is a macro photograph of a Pod.
In autumn the trees in my neighborhood are covered with pods. The pods start out green and turn pink and then reddish brown. One day the wind knocked down several branches of pods, and the streets were carpeted with them. I brought them home and took many photos. For a while my living room looked like the world outside.
I love the structure of the pods, and the many creative possibilities they offer.
POD means picture of the day.
I love this long gown with animal print.

Himalayan Balsam Pods.
These grow as invasive weeds in the nearby brook carried by the water and proliferating along the muddy banks. Because the seed pods explode quite violently and have a spring mechanism inside the seeds can be found up to 5 metres from the point where the pod bursts. Kids love them and act as another dispersal method.
A cotton boll is a segmented pod containing 32 immature seeds from which the cotton fibers will grow. This boll is considered a fruit because it contains seeds. An average boll will contain nearly 500,000 fibers of cotton.
The cotton industry generates over $60 billion of business in the US, the greatest of any U.S. crop
I never knew it, but New Mexico is a cotton producer although cotton growing here seems to be in decline.
