In your Bernard Plant AU.. would the fruits Bernard have be his children or something? Grapes can self-pollinate.. so little Bernard plant clones??
They're just grapes...
Or rather, they should be just grapes if it weren't for a certain bird trying to pollinate plant!Bernard, even though it's not a pollinating bird at all.
But the grapes don't actually reach such a developed stage because plant!Bernard is a potted plant and a bit too young to produce a "good harvest." (since grapevines only produce functional fruit in their third year).
However, if they could have a baby grape that way, it would be because all the nutrients ended up concentrated in a grape that grew too large to accommodate a baby inside the fruit.
