Chris, this is really out of my depth but I was wondering how necessary 
closeness really is.  If you're experimenting, wouldn't you simply 
hand-pollinate? It's wonderful when nature does it on it's own but that 
pushes your odds to near-zilch. Again, I know little about hybridizing, so I 
may be way off in this comment.

Subject: Stylophorum hybridization?

Hi everybody!

This year I bought three Stylophorum species for my garden:

   Stylophorum diphyllum
   Stylophorum lasiocarpum
   Stylophorum sutchuenense

They're from reputable sources and likely to be correctly named.

My question is whether or not Stylophorum species hybridize at all. 

I'm trying to figure out how close to plant them to each other.  If there's a 
chance they could produce something unique I might try getting them closer to 
each other.

Chris
