I have a patch of about 7-8 plants right next to my house. Last year
was extraordinary production, some of the plants yielding a gallon of
fruit, which for Nankings is a lot. This year they have a couple
fruit on each of the plants. So I don't think it has anything to do
with compatibility. It tells me that they are not wind pollinated,
most assuredly insect pollinated and last winter took a terrible toll
on polinators.
