Drosera filiformis seed question

elgecko

I've got a magic window!
Several weeks ago my Drosera filiformis ssp. filiformis flowered. The first buds on the flower stem now are starting to turn black on the top of the bud. So yesterday I pulled one bud off. Today I went to collect the seed. First think I noticed is that the seed was a yellow - green color, and bigger then D. capensis or D. spatulata seeds.
This is the first time I collected from this plant. I guess my question or concern is, are the seeds rip? So far the other sundew seeds I've collected have always been black.
 
Ripe seed is always black or brown. I would let the seed ripen more before harvesting it.
 
Ummm......what he said
