For years I've daydreamed about using Ipomoea pandurata to make crosses with more colorful Ipomoea species. So this morning I set out to do that with Ipomoea coccinea. O.M.G. there's pollen everywhere and I can't find the stigma -- I think it's smothered with pollen already! Good grief. http://www.badbear.com/dkramb/P8270009.JPG Any words of wisdom from the PBS forum? :-) PS: I was successful, however, in crossing Passiflora x 'Manta' with Passiflora lutea this morning. And by that I mean I was able to apply pollen from one onto the other, and vice versa. :-) Only time will tell if they develop fruit. Dennis in Cincinnati (not a hurricane in sight!)
