[Aroid-l] Anthurium cross pollination?

From: Don Martinson <llmen at wi.rr.com> on 2017.10.11 at 17:53:39
Anthurium cross pollination? To what extent are members of the Anthurium Section Pachyneurium intrafertile?=A0 I grow both Anthurium schlechtendalii and Anthurium watermaliense, neither of which has ever set seed.=A0 This year, they bloomed at the same time and were right next to another.=A0 The schlechtendalii inflorescence faded and dried, while that of the watermaliense appears to POSSIBLY have been fertilized.=A0 So was I simply fortunate to have the watermaliense self pollinate, or is there any chance that they might have crossed? Photos of all below.
