Re: I. sibirica X I. pseudacorus

Dennis, et al,

I've tried the cross a few times with no takes, but using tetraploids should most certainly work creating an amphidiploid.  There are quite a few tet sibericas to try.  Sultan's Ruby comes to mind as being a very reliable garden plant.  Dennis, could you send over some of the tetraploid pollen?  I have SR and a couple of other tetraploids in the garden.  This may be worth a try.

I grow both.  I can try it this year (if you remind me!).  Actually my clone of pseudacorus is tetraploid, so that could improve chances of a successful cross.
