Margo,
You can save pollen but I find it keeps for a month in the butter dish or crisper of the refrigerator. Set up a jar and fill it with drierite and put pollen (NOT WHOLE ANTHERS) in glassine envelopes or microfuge tubes. You will need to use a brush to apply pollen stored in this manner.
I RARELY do this as I have so many flowers that have at least SOME overlap. It's much easier to use whole flowers as the pollinating mechanism.
I try o give away most of my seedlings unless they are crap. I try to eliminate the ugly ones and they GO TO THE COMPOST!
