I don’t know for sure if I got the name right but I posted a picture on my diary so once that loads you will be able to see. The sepals on all my male flowers are yellow right before the tips. Is this a sign of a deficiency? Maybe phosphorus?

Great picture - (Yes, sepals.) i would not worry about THAT at all, and in other instances the plant just shows its colors from time to time; a BIG example to me, and to you ahead of time, is yellow splotches on leaves: don't worry about them, only if, say, more than 4-6 leaves have them randomly and especially if it's a third to a half + of the leaf solid yellow - you know, obviously a problem. Even THEN, IIIIIIIII hit any plant with whatever Miracle-Grow I have at 'outdoor plant' strength and give it a few days. Since I use it ALL the time, i never have had even a minor yellow outbreak;
The ONE time i did? it worked and I've 'never looked back'; You could also 'Search Window' for suspected deficiencies for more-immediate info.
i'd say 'not a problem' here---eg

I believe it is just genetics. We have some that look like that from past years. No worries!
