I have found that for me small artist's paint brushes are great to move pollen. If you reuse the same brush, also kill any old pollen by a quick dip in alcohol. Let the brushes dry completely in the sun so there is no alcohol smell on the brush. Buy a bunch of a cheaper but soft brands so you always have a brush ready to collect pollen. I hope this helps because it is a very useful skill to either make more of the same plant or new hybrids. Russ Hintz In a message dated 3/26/2013 1:58:56 P.M.

I have just pollinated my M. aristata now so hopefully there will be seeds in a few months. Are moraeas self-fertile? Also, you should put those great diagrams on the wiki :) Nhu On Tue, Mar 26, 2013 at 8:54 AM, Michael Mace <michaelcmace@gmail.com>wrote: > If anyone wants more details, I posted some instructions and images here: > > http://growingcoolplants.blogspot.com/2013/03/… > s.html > _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.ibiblio.org http://pacificbulbsociety.org/list.php http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/
