Good to see they're getting blue somewhere; in my area (Ainslie-Majura along the edge of Hackett) I haven't seen a single seedpod (of any color) along the paths where I check on them, and 3 of a group of 4 I've been watching since 2020 just went brown and died off above ground, whereas all 4 of them had blue seedpods Jan 10 a year ago. I have no idea what's going on ... bad effect of dry early spring perhaps?
