Ron, I'm sorry, I completely overlooked your response to my I. lobata question!

The plants I grew were blooming heavily by the end of May and continued until the middle of August. I was so wrapped up in butterflies and my JMG's at that time that I didn't take many pictures or observe the plants too closely. I do recall seeing humingbirds visit the flowers every day. I did not hand pollinate, and did make a mental note, wondering how the hummingbirds were getting anything with the flowers closed. Of all the pictures I took, only one very grainy experimental shot with high ISO setting shows a light colored flower open. There were orange flowers as well.

The DG software for some reason rotated it 90 degrees while uploading...but you get the point!
