What is fertilization of egg cell by pollen from the same plant?
When egg cells are fertilized from the same plant is called self-pollination. Self-pollinators include certain types of fruit trees. Other types of fruit trees require two for pollination.
Do you need 2 Stella cherry trees to bear fruit?
It depends on the variety. Many varieties of fruit tree are self-sterile, meaning that they cannot pollinate with themselves. Due to grafting, if you buy two trees of the same variety, they are genetically identical- basically they are the same tree. So, you need a different variety of the same fruit in order for cross pollination to occur. Some trees are more genetically compatible for cross pollination, which is why in nursery catalogs, different trees are said to be good pollinators. Commercial orchards often plant crab-apple trees in with the apples to ensure good pollination.
What does pollination lead to?
fruit
Why do you need bees live?
Bees (and other flying insects) are needed for the pollination of fruit, flowers, trees and various other plants. Without pollination, plants couldn't survive and we wouldn't have enough food to eat.
Why do Apple farmers purchase bees?
Apple farmers need bees to pollinate their apple trees. Where bees have been eradicated by pesticides, more bees, or hand pollination, are necessary for the trees to bear fruit.

Do you need two olive trees to produce edible fruit?
PollinationFlowers of the olive tree, which are small and whitish, are difficult to see behind the evergreen leaves. Olive trees produce both perfect flowers, with male and female reproductive organs, and staminates that contain only stamens. Olive trees do not need insects for pollination, only wind, and most varieties are self-pollinating. Cross-pollination, the practice of planting more than one olive tree to ensure pollination, is not necessary but it does produce more desirable fruit.Read more: http://www.ehow.com/info_8368646_do-trees-need-cross-pollination.html#ixzz2lGNYYF1e
