The Dissecting Microscope Photos

Below are images of the pollen of Asian, Day, and Eastern Lilies at 35x using a dissecting microscope:
Asian Lily
Lilum amabile



Day Lily
Hemerocallis lilioasphodelus 



Easter Lily
Lilium longiflorum



At 35x, it is hard to perceive similarities and differences between the three pollens, and any observations can be superficial at best.  However, those observations should still be made. The pollens were all granular and a brownish yellow color, but it seems that the pollens of the Day and Easter lilies were more similar, upon observation
