Default Re: Sarracenia Self pollenation

Arvin, when the anthers are ripe the pollen will fall onto the "inverted umbrella". All you need to do is to use a cotton bud to pick up the pollen and rub it onto the stigma. If pollination is successful, the petals fall off the next day. I continued to pollinate for a week after that.
