Lilium seeds

John,

I'm afraid that if you cannot see an embryo when you hold a seed up to the
light, it is not there. Have never encountered an invisible one. You might
want to plant a few of the stronger ones just to be sure. ProMix or a
similar sterile medium with a little milled peat moss on top of the seeds
should coax out any unseen embryos.

I had a L. regal alba that produced some seeds this year all on their own.

My question is, are they supposed to be clear and no coloration of an
embryo? Are are my seeds just duds? If not, what do I do with them now?
