Irises - how do i get the seeds from the flowers?

I got some cut irises from a friend on mother's day and i was thinking that if i can get the seeds from the flowers I can plant them and grow irises in my garden. How do i get the seeds from the flowers and where are they located in the flower? What process do I need to do to grow them? Thanks! :)

No, forget it. Irisis grow from corms, and only a very experienced - and infinitely patient - horticulturalist would try to grow them from seeds. The corms are inexpensive enough, and after a couple of years you'll start dividing the clumps and you'll have so many you won't know what to do with them.
Reply:you wont be able to get seeds off flowers once they have been cut.
Reply:u cant get seeds from cut flowers you would need to leave them on the plant, die and then cut them
