5. Immature flower as it progresses to a mature one. The orange styles are starting to push out.
by Kell May 19, 2013 8:31 PM
6. The perianth bags are growing big and getting ready to push the style up and out. The anthers are located in the furry bags and as the style pops out, the end of it will be covered in pollen.
by Kell May 19, 2013 8:31 PM
7. You can see the perianth furry bags are now tilting up with the styles in position to pop out.
by Kell May 19, 2013 8:32 PM
8. Styles are now huge loops, about to pop straight out.
by Kell May 19, 2013 8:32 PM
The styles are growing and soon will pop straight out of their perianth furry bags with pollen on the stigma end and act like pollen presenters.
by Kell May 19, 2013 8:33 PM
11. The styles start popping out at the base and work themselves up. Each stigma is covered in its own pollen for about a day and acts as a pollen presenter.
