U. gibba seedpods developing

I grow U. gibba in a 5-gallon plastic pail drilled with holes, buried in my sphagnum bog garden.

I was flowering very prolifically in the past couple of months, and I am noticing several dozen swollen seed pods developing.

Is U. gibba easy to get to set seed, or am I doing something right?

Anyway, I should have a fair amount of seed soon, if all goes well.

I also grow U. livida, U. bisquamata, and U. subulata outside, and only the U. subulata sets seed.
 
Scott, check your U. lividia closely. I beleive I got mine from you. To me it looks as if some of the pods produce a few seeds 1-4 seeds per pod.
