 The sample was obtained by removing the stamen from the selected flower and rubbing the anther onto the slide until some pollen rubs of from the anther onto the slide.


 The plant species of the pollen is Hemerocallis Lilioasphodelus, or yellow daylily. I found the species name by searching some characteristics of the flower such as “yellow, 6 petals, long leaves”. I then found
 <a href="https://www.proflowers.com/blog/yellow-flowers">
 this

 page which lists common species of yellow flowers and found a picture that matched the flower the sample was obtained from.
