Fruit on 'Incense'

11 years ago

Gave up hand pollinating, could never get it to fruit. Nature has a way of working things out. I think P. Incarnata is the donor, tons blooming in my yard. I just hand pollinated the flower next to it, 'Constance Elliot' opened for the first time and I thought there might be a chance.

'Constance Elliot' could not get the job done, I am sure it was Incarnata.

How strange, incense almost always has to be hand pollinated

My Incense has never been hand-pollinated, but it's produced fruit lots of times. I don't even look for fruit anymore (not tasty). I try to pull out any sprouts because they will take over my entire yard and the neighbor's!
