HYB: Fertility

I have recently removed bee pods on pseudacorus, versicolors, 
and 'robustas.'  Every pseudacorus bloom seems to produce a pod.  
All of the versicolors had seed pods except JOHN WOOD.  No 
'robustas' had seed pods.  CAST ASHORE, maybe a 'robusta', had
pods.

So, what I am trying to say is that JOHN WOOD is not a versicolor
and CAST ASHORE is not a 'robusta.'  

Can anybody verify the above statement?

Chuck Chapman sent me a cross of versicolor x pseudacorus (a 
versipseu?)  several years ago.  It is now a mature clump and has 
the most marvelous blooms of blue veins on a white ground, giving 
a blue effect from a distance.  It has pseudacorus form and blooms
with them.  Further, it makes no seed pods.  What a delightful 
plant!
