This may not actually belong in this forum yet, but may in the future.
My Spath. kimballiana put out 5 or 6 inflorescences last season.
It produced no seedpods on any of them.
It has begun its first 2 inflorescences for this season.
One has started a seedpod.
My priority is to establish them in my yard, if possible.
I will wait and watch how this pod fares to see if it actually contains seeds.
If it produces at least 2 more pods, and this one does contain seeds, I would be open to letting someone have a pod in return for a flask from it. No use in a major discussion about this yet. It's all pie-in-the-sky for now.
But, a question does come to mind:
Is it possible that it is self-fertile or more likely that it may have a local pollinator?
Spathoglottis plicatta, Arundina graminifolia, Phaius tankervilleae several Vanda hybrids and maybe some species Vandas are invasive everywhere around here. This one would make a nice addition, to my thinking.
