I have not done this either. I think the average gardener could do it. Maybe using small paint brush to transfer pollen?
Or what if the two plants were planted in the same container, or in close proximity---and let insects do the cross pollination?
Or could they cross pollinate in the wind ?
Will need to look up how the experts make all those hybrids?
