Notes: The only significant differences were the effect of floral morph on seeds per fruit in 2002, and the interaction between nectar treatment and floral morph on fruits in 2004 (see Results). N = 19 plants for each group in 2002. In 2004 for pin/low, pin/high, thrum/low and thrum/high, N = 18, 18, 19, and 20 plants for fruits and 10, 15, 18, and 15 plants for seed data respectively (since not all plants produced fruits).
