Triticale is a cross, not only of two different species, but of two separate genera. And it breeds true. As in you can use the seed of this year's crop to plant next year's.
So, that makes it an entirely new species created within the space of one century. What is possible in 100,000 centuries, in nature, with the added pressure of extinction level events opening new environments for thousands upon thousands of species.
Triticale is actually sterile and has to be treated with a drug to make it fertile.

Triticale is self pollinating and breeds true.
People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
