At last! An aroid topic! I love the ongoing measurement thread, but have
something for this:
A also do hybridizing (strictly amateur) and have come across this in
numerous species: hemerocallis, rosa, dianthus, and lagerstroemeria, off the
top of my heads. One possible hypothesis: I have only had these
difficulties when attempting to cross multi-hybrid parent with multi-hybrid
parent. Attempting to cross hybrid with species or species with species
have never had this occur. I have not as yet attempted to cross any aroids.
All aroids that I have germinated from seed (only 2 so far) have been
strictly species, and no others growing in vicinity that might
cross-pollinate.
