Re: CULT: Pod setting

It appears that *pallida* Kupari has a modest amount of PBF.  Am I seeing
this correctly?  I vaguely remember some reference elsewhere of this for
Kupari, I think, as well.  I'm curious, as the branching, plant habit and
PBF suggests some *variegata* ancestry in the cv.  Those are not typical
*pallida* features.

Re bee pods--everything that I had last year and all that have fallen by the
wayside (stalk rotting out from underneath, mostly) have been balloons.  I
find this rather remarkable as ALL of them were last year, and it is looking
that way this year as well.  What have we got?  Partial pollenization?  Or
is this a hormonal "seedless" fruit set due to leftover growth hormones in
the bloomstalk?  I suspect this is the case, actually.
