Would it be possible for you to pollinate a flower for me so I may have some seeds?

I'll try! Is it self-fertile?

You're welcome, the pollinia stuck very readily to the back of a small paintbrush, now just hoping I pollinated the stigmatic spots correctly!

Thank you, it is difficult trying to pollinate them, they need to be bigger!
