Self fertile,self compatible or self fertilizing ?
I have heard this also.I am not sure will find out next year. These fruit are P.phoenicea which is not self compatible. Okay this is were it gets weird.Phenicea works on alata,alata works on phoeniea,alata is self compatable,phoeniea is not. I was also reading that all the phoenicea in the U.S. are probably hybrids and not pure,
