Now take your #3 brush and carefully introduce it through the middle of the flower and gently introduce the point of the brush through the opening as you skies the base of the flower, now gently mover the brush in a circular motion in side the flower base, that were the pollen is, got to be careful not to break the stylise that's inside there. Repeat this on all the flower available a the moment thus this increases the chases of pollination do to the fact that the more you do it the more pollen you have on the paint brush tip. flowers last for a few day so you can repeat it several days until the flower fall of. best time to start doing this is about half an hour after the flower has opened.
