AFAIK, unrelated genera cannot cross-pollinate. Only species in the same genus, and sometimes not even then. One is a monocot, the other is a dicot. They are not even in the same family.

I heard it from a friend at work here in Idaho who use to farm for a living.
When she told me, I scratched my head in disbelief. Others did some scratchin' too when I asked them about it. "Katra" wrote in message ...
