HYB:pollination


Found something interesting yesterday.  A pod (bee or air) on SUMMER  
RADIANCE.  I introduced this iris is 1996 and have used it in many  crosses.  It has 
never set a pod for me!  
 
I tried another cross on it this spring . . . just in case.  It didn't  take. 
 Now I find this pod.  What does it mean?  
 
Can a bloom set an AIR pod and not be able to set a real pod?  Or does  it 
just mean I've not tried hard enough?
