Old hybridizer's trick for those that like to sleep in or are otherwise =
late to hit the garden......

A nylon stocking placed over the bloom before it opens and secured with =
a twist tie will thwart even the most determined bee. :-) Just be =
careful when removing the stocking, not to jostle the bloom. The pollen =
will have started to ripen and there's a good possibility of selfing.=20
