I have touched on this subject before. I have found very few
quarterbreds with any pollen and have had little little luck setting
seed on them. Maybe, it's just my conditions here. There is an
exception or two. GENETIC BURST is always loaded with viable
pollen and the old reliable SATAN'S MISTRESS, too. The five
quarterbreds I've introduced all appear to be sterile.
