Are daffodils self-unfruitful?

I searched Google, and I've read a lot of comments people made about daffodils. People like to cross-pollinate daffodils, but I am wondering is it possible for one daffodil flower to self-pollinate? Is it self-unfruitful?

Are daffodils self-unfruitful?
Some of the wild species are. Most you see are cultivars, and I don't think they are self-pollinating.



And it's a moot point anyway, because if you want more of the SAME daffodil, it's by FAR faster to just let it reproduce through the multiplying of the bulbs. And then you get clones - you know what kind of flower the new bulblet will produce. I doubt anyone would bother even seeing if cultivars are self-pollinating. A waste of time, since there's a far far better and faster and more reliable way to make more daffodils.



If you want to make new, different daffodils, they have to be carefully cross-pollinated to produce new species. Then you have to wait a gazillion years (okay, more like twelve) before the resulting seed grows big enough to form a bulb, and then a flower, to even know what the heck you just spent 12 years growing. Breeders will oten toss the majority of what they produce...keeping only the "good" ones, which are few and far between.
