yes, taking the pollen of the colossus and putting it on the leptoura.
Usually you put the larger flower on the smaller flower, something
about the smaller flower not being able to generate a pollen tube all
the way to the ovary of the larger flower. Also there's the influence
of the extra-nuclear DNA/RNA of the pod parent...maybe helping to make
the stripe come out more.
