Our seeds this week are actually from a plant that is related to last week’s plant.

The seeds don’t look much alike, however.

This week mystery seeds are speckled and teardrop shaped, rather than round and brown like last week’s.

Today’s seeds were hard to retrieve because they drop from the plant as soon as they mature. In fact, the ones in these photographs might not be fully ripe.

Perhaps seeing the “seed holders” from the plant will help?

Do you recognize what plant these seeds are from? If you choose to, please leave a comment with your ideas.

New mystery seeds and Seed of the Week answers are posted on Tuesdays.

Edit:  The answer is now posted.
