My plant is in a pot , it was a volunteer , and yes it seems to be putting off a lot of blooms. When I took the photo it had 60 + open flowers.That is one of the reasons I hope to get seeds.
I am thinking I may move it to the garden , pot and all, and see if that will attract some insects or maybe remind the plant it should be thinking about seeds.

Do you think I could hand pollinate it with a small paint brush? I have read of people doing that with other plants.
..a balanced life is worth pursuit.
