Pollination

Self-fertile.

Growing it

Zones 9-11 in the ground; a top choice for a large pot brought in for winter elsewhere. Nearly everbearing. 'Improved Meyer' is the hardiest and most forgiving.

Chill and pollination are given at the fruit-type level; specific cultivars can differ. Values are typical ranges for home-garden planning.
