Subject: Re: [NAFEX] Hand pollination question A couple of further questions: Should the pollen show up on the end of a brush when it is shedding or is it too tiny too see (I can't see any yet)? Also, can pollen be stored for any length of time so that an earlier flowering tree could pollinate a later flowering one?
