Our iris society is a young club and I gave a program on hybridizing and all
12
members were excited and went home to make some crosses. Well, non of them
took and they were very disapointed. I noticed that I had a large number of
"bee crossed" pods on my iris so I decided to let them develop and this fall
I would give
them to the members so they could go onto "phase 2" and plant them. Well the
pods are drying and cracking and I'm collecting them and checking and there
is no seeds!
I guess the hot dry weather we are having is the reason? The pods grew as if
they had seeds developing in them, but not a one had any! If not the hot dry
weather,
than what could be the reason?
