Ch pollinators

About half the sites I check tell me Kodia is self- fertile, half self sterile.
Does anyone know which?

    I find Orange Pippin to be a highly reliable site. They say that Cherry Kordia requires a pollination partner and they give a link to suitable varieties

    I would trust them 👍

    According to G***le Kodia is either a car or a language, no mention of a plant. Do you have a full or alternative name for yours?

    Sorry, Cherry Kordia.
    Just had op to remove cataract, not quite perfect sight yet.

    Tried a few sites, evenly split on pollination.
    Had flowers last year, but no fruit, so could have been weather or lack of crosspolinator.
    Bit pushed for room for another tree.

    No worries, fruit trees not really my specialist subject so couldn't second guess like Dove :)

    My children don’t call me Miss Marple for nothing 🤣 

    The possible need for pollination sugggested it was a fruit tree. 

    The ‘ch’ suggested cherry 

    So ... 

    I searched Orange Pippin’s list of cherries for a variety called Kodia and found Kordia

    Elementary my dear Watson 🧐
