Flowering & PollinationDo bisexual mango flowers automatically pollinate themselves?
Having male and female structures in one flower does not establish that pollen transfers automatically or that it will function successfully. Self-compatibility and independent pollen movement are separate considerations. Keep insect access in the management plan even when a tree can use its own pollen. An enclosed tree with perfect flowers should therefore be observed for actual transfer opportunities rather than assumed to be fully self-sufficient because of flower anatomy.
