So cute :)

Interesting comment, dovev. Rebutias are not renowned as self-fertile but both my types of R. muscula do set seed on their own.

Very interesting, Dont think mine will set seed by itself, not every flower anyway. If it did It should have at least 20 fruits on it by now, It only has one that I can see, and has been flowering all summer long. Oh well, it should deffinatly have some now. :)
