hi Sib,
I believe they are not.

I had a seedpod 2 years ago on my plant, when it was outdoor during the summer. I had only one clone and ended up with a ripe seedpod, surely 'naturally' pollinated. The presence of a similar plant in the neighborhood is VERY unlikely, so I would be tempted to say that it could be self-fertile. I had no germination though...

I have 2 flowers now. I tried taking a piece of paper towel and played around the inside....but I guess there isn't much to wait for.....the plant is better producing plantlets.

Maybe I'll try anyways, just to see what happens. Sib

Its incredible....I noticed that 3 cm away from the plant.....away from any leaf...there is suddenly a very tiny little plantlet that has its roots in a small strand of sphagnum....Nature is sooo wonderful and resourceful. I hope I keep getting nice plantlets...then I can finally offer something to my dear friends here who helped keep this friendly community going. Ping Primuliflora will be my first trade plant lol! .....
