Sexual reproduction via flowers+seeds.
When self-fertilizing, the offspring are not identical.

Oh OK, that makes sense - you’re talking about clones right? I thought you were saying that they don’t even come out the same species 🤣

I don’t think you quite understand what a hybrid for annual crops is. Hybrids in trees are fundamentally different. Same word different meaning.

Apples are a prime example.
