I can find a lot of info about self pollination of Aponogetons, but nothing about longiplumulosus. Does anyone know or it is self-sterile or how it's done?

I did a quick google search and it seems that this plant is a prolific flowerer so that should allow for a lot of error. Anyhow I did find this link (https://www.aqua-fish.net/plants/aponogeton-longiplumulosus) other links seemed to indicate that going to seed was fairly simple without additional work from the gardener so it may very well be self pollinating.

Thanks, the link doesn't state self-pollination or with other flowers, but it looks like it could be done. I only have mine a week now and it has already produced 2 4-6 inch leaves so lets wait for flowers!

oh yeah forgot to mention that bit, none of the stuff I searched up mentioned explicitly if it was self pollinating but it sounded generally really easy and since it sends up so many flowers it wouldn't be too hard to let one go by itself and manually pollinate the next flower stalk. Be sure to report back what you discover so hopefully it can be added/created to an apc plant finder page

I will! Thanks!
