Indoor Fruit-Bearing Plants

FAQ About Indoor Fruit-Bearing Plants

Do indoor fruit plants require pollination?

Some indoor fruit plants do require pollination to produce fruit, while others are self-pollinating. For example, many citrus trees and tomatoes are self-pollinating, meaning they do not need additional pollination from insects or human intervention. However, other plants, such as blueberries, may require hand pollination or assistance from pollinators like bees. If growing indoors, manual pollination can be achieved using a small paintbrush to transfer pollen between flowers.
