So it just has to self pollinate or I would be just dreaming about getting fruits.  |
If you look at the link from Purdue which I and others have posted in this thread you'll see that almost ANY member of the Physalis genus, and there are many, can pollinate a tomatillo and I think the figure was up to 500 meters away which is quite a distance.
Have you had a chance to read that link b'c it does explain why Tomatotillos are self infertile.
