Dr. Ragionieri used what he called lutea simplex which is lutescens to produce his hybrid. It hasn't shown much vigor with me. Lutescens sets open pollinated hips in Phoenix by the thousands but germination is very poor.

Thanks for the information. I never acquired lutescens. Perhaps some day I will attempt to go back to it.
I'm also now working with a diploid line of banksia descendants that exhibit good fertility.
A great deal of progress has been made since I wrote this article. I hope to follow up with another eventually.
Banksias are fascinating.
Best wishes, Robert
