<< r is the stigma right?  And that's where the pollen should be?  I
 dissected a male flower today and found that when you smoosh up the stigma,
 what I would describe as little grains ooze out of what looks like small
 folds...Pollen I assume?  Another question, this one about the female, the

more
 the better I assume?  Ok, I think I've asked enough for one day...Signing
off.
