Anyone successfully harvest seeds from a Graomogolensis? I’ve read varying reports that they won’t be viable unless the plant is pollinated from another plant, and others say seed production wont be as robust if not cross pollinated.

Nice! I'm currently of the understanding that *some* clones are definitely self-fertile, which is interesting enough, as I believe the species was thought to be entirely self-incompatible for quite some time. Manual self-pollination is definitely worth a shot, and who knows, you might end up with some seed!

I’m on the same page. I don’t t think I am going to knock myself out though, just let the seeds fall where they may 8)
