I've also seen extremely short styles in a few doubles, hidden down so far in the extra petals that it would be hard to dab, and not necessarily looking as though there were an opening for the pollen to enter.
@sooby do you have any info to share about such occurrences?
None of the blooms that I missed pollinating set pods from ants, bees, or butterflies even though we have a backyard metropolis of all of them. Do you know roughly how many older daylily blooms you had where two resulted in insect pollinated pods, Becky?
Here's my happy store of refrigerated pollen, not well organized this first go-round, but will be ready next year (color coding really helps add a layer of easily sorted info, but dates on cells instead of in my journal will be easier - found these at a dollar store so stocked up and jumped right in).
BTW, that one pollen cell holds the most interesting anthers I'd ever seen ... ridges. I'm still pondering it.
