Interesting. I just pollinated my Datacosa with my Edvah Loo. How soon can you tell whether or not it took?
Not Normal
Put this way, if the flower fades a nd falls off then it didnt take.In saying that,I have learnt that you can not say that you have the pod until the pod is ripe .The reason I say that is ,That the plant can abort the seed pod at any timeOriginally Posted by Tony

We'll see what happens. I have 5 more sets of Edvah Loo pollen if this one doesn't work.
