Abstract
Flower opening time and duration of blooming, the time of the anther opening and the type of pollination of five species of Hemerocallis genus were studied under different weather conditions. We found that weather conditions do not affect the flowering of mesophytic species. Under adverse weather conditions, the xerophytic species start to bloom later, and their blossom time increases. The main type of pollination is xenogamy, which is combined with geytonogamy. The pollen collected in a sunny weather at 65 % air humidity is characterized by high viability.
