Thanks Gabe, I wasn't sure of the timing with the arrival of the male flowers and the receptivity of the last female flowers. I am used to the pollinating thing with bromeliads so these large flowers should be easy.
I was wondering also on the storage of pollen. Brom pollen can be stored in the freezer for up to 1 year. Have you or anyone tried this.
