Shui Mi Tao Peach - Is it Self-Fruitful?

Just checking to see if anyone knows whether or not Shui Mi Tao is self-fruitful? I know most white peaches tend to be self-fruitful. Hoping SMT is.

Chances are highly likely.

I only know of two peaches out of dozens that are pollen sterile: Indian Free and J.H. Hale.

I figured as much, Matt. Was hoping it wasn’t a “one in a million” requiring a pollinator, but then I remembered that my flat peaches are pretty close by, so either way, I’m good! Pretty excited about this peach. My kind of peach - super sweet and super juicy.
