I did not observe any significantly different forms or
colors of I. Setosa seedlings in their third year than I had
observed in their second year blooms. One thing I did note
was that the blue flowered Setosas outgrew the white
flowered Setosas. It would have been better for me to have
separated these white flowered plants after seeing them
bloom the second year from seed.

If I wanted to put pollen on a Setosa, where's the right
spot? Is it on the "tubular hairs" sticking upwards between
the falls?
