I've been trying to find corolla tube lengths for flowering plants I have on my study meadows in Finland, but that task seems to be harder than I expected. Flora Europea (Tutin et al. 1964-80) provides some corolla lengths, but only for 1/4 of my plant species. Does anyone have good ideas what articles or books I could check out for corolla tube lengths of Scandinavian plants? Thank you!
Hi
I think these papers, books or... can help you.

Have you considered purchasing a digital caliper and measuring them yourself? If you have the time new means and standard deviations, using fresh flowers, could become a valuable resource in the future.
