Pollen is usually species specific otherwise it would not be possible to classify plants. There are very few instances where pollen will fertilize different species from itself.
No, pine pollen and rose pollen are from different plant species and cannot combine to create a new flower. In general, pollen from one plant species cannot fertilize the ovules of a different plant species.
No, not all pollen can fertilize any flower. For successful fertilization to occur, the pollen must be compatible with the flower's stigma in terms of species and genetic makeup. Pollen from the same species or a closely related species is more likely to be successful in fertilizing a flower.
Pollen from the same species is required for successful fertilization because the pollen grains need to contain matching genetic information to that of the female reproductive structures in the flower. This ensures compatibility and proper development of the embryo. Pollen from different species would not have the necessary genetic instructions for successful fertilization to occur.
The three main ways pollen is transferred are by wind (anemophily), by insects (entomophily), and by birds or other animals (zoophily). Each method of pollen transfer is adapted to suit the specific characteristics of the plant species involved.
The reason why some pollen grains have spikes is because of the plant species. It also may be because of where the plant was adapted. Pollen grains have spikes also simply due to the location where the species is found. It is located in the coastal species where pollen grains have a different pollen shape to help with things such as salt resistant while a species found inland will be more heat resistant. It really just depends on the type of environment in which the plant has adapted. By Lyn Le

This is an impossible question to answer the way it is phrased. One needs to know what plant species is being discussed before the question can be answered. Each species will have a unique number of chromosomes and its pollen will have half as many as the parent species.
No, pollen does not germinate indiscriminately on all stigmas. Each species of plant has specific mechanisms for pollen recognition, and there are compatibility factors and biochemical signaling involved in successful germination on a stigma. Pollen that is incompatible with a stigma may fail to germinate.

A taxonomist could examine the pollen grains of both trees to look for specific differences. If the trees do not have pollen at this time a taxanomical experiment could involve taking DNA samples and comparing the results.
Pollen can vary in color depending on the plant species, but common colors include yellow, orange, and white.

Dwarf lake iris or Iris lacustris does have pollen. It is a threatened species because of loss of habitat.
