kilr,
In this case good things must be rushed. The males I'm speaking of are being shipped a couple thousand miles overnight Fed-ex. Wish me luck on this adventure.

Males arrived about 9:30 am ET. As soon as I got them I started to pollinate 5 in all, 3 that bloomed this morning and two from yesterday. One concern I have is that the pollen is rather damp from being in the ziplocks. There was a lot of condensation in the bags with the flowers. I could brush it out and transfer it with no problem. I'm going to post a few pics from the event. Check out photo gallery

Thanks scott, It's the waiting game now. How long you reckon
It'll take for me to know if the pollination was successful? I'm keeping my fingers ,toes , and eyes crossed.
