Cross pollination is when pollination occurs between two different varieties of plant, which do not ordinarily pollinate each other, thus producing a new, hybrid variety of plant. Self pollination is when a single plant pollinates itself, thus there is no mixing of genetic material, the offspring will have only one parent instead of two.

Self-pollination is the process by which pollen from the stamen of a flower is transferred to the pistil of a flower of the same plant whereas cross-pollination is the transfer of pollen from the stamen of a flower to the pistil of a flower of a different plant.
