LariAnn said:Every A. plumbea I've worked with, whether "nigra" or regular, has turned up sterile in my experience. To me, sterility cannot be a hallmark of a true species; otherwise, the whole definition of species is thrown to the wind. Species have to be able to reproduce sexually; if they cannot, then they must be sports or cultivars, not species. IMHO.
