Hopefully someone with knowledge on breeding and so on can explain this too me better...
Instead of the tulip tree being a heritage tree they decided it suited a outstanding tree for seeds instead.....
but that has now been a NO GO..........
what they are saying is that they do not want a tree that is self pollinating itself.....
there are about 1000 maybe 2000 flowers up the tree this year and only one seed pod fell down so that means that the rest of them have some viable seed in the pod but they are saying by cross pollinating you get more viable seeds as DO all plants they say especially even if the hybrids such as lilies they said in specific....
but since this is a species tree this does not make much sense to me
considering that a native species in lilies has a good percent of viable seeds in the pod right??
like thinking Regale
or do they just have so many viable seeds even if they are species plants??
