Question regarding Epidendrum nocturnum

[Jeff214]

I recently purchased an Epidendrum nocturnum. While it came in bud, a few of these blasted... Once the buds began to shrivel, the back end of the bud (ovary?) began to swell. Is this trying to form a seed? I've read that this species is capable of self-pollination, even without blooming?? (please correct me if I'm wrong)

First photo shows a bud, unblasted. Second photos shows a blasted bud with the posterior part enlarging.

If it's a seed pod, I'm going to remove it. It seems a bit stressed in its new environment.
