Thank you, Sharon, for your response!

I'm quite afraid to ask this as I seem to have absolutely NO aptitude for
iris genetics, and I'm embarrassed to admit every tutorial you have
offered on this list over the last couple years has gone so far over my
head as to require telescopic magnification ... but ... am I correct in
understanding that the "real" LADY MOHR, as an OGB-, has low fertility,
whereas the imposter, as a presumed OGB, has increased fertility? If
this is correct, is the imposter both pod and pollen fertile? Can it be
crossed successfully with TBs or only with other ABs?
>Didn't expect an easy answer from me, did you?
Actually, your answer was surprisingly straightforward. ;-) However, it
begs the obvious question - if I should desire to purchase the "real"
LADY MOHR for side by side comparison with my unknown, how and where
could I be assured that I was, in fact, purchasing the "real" thing and
not just another imposter?
