    Lila you are just wonderful!
    Congratulations.
    I bow to your brilliant detective work.
    Many many thank.
    I really appreciate your hard work.

    Looking at pics on www I realised my flowers had lost most of the long whiskery stamens and the seed pods were already well developed.
    Only a few stamens still remain.

    If you have larger images and were willing to share, I wouldn't mind this one for Botany Photo of the Day (bark and flower pics)
