Potato leaf varieties - Small chilli - 08-05-2026

I know potato leaf varieties are capable of crossing with normal tomatoes. Do they self pollinate or do they need other tomatoes ? 

Only ask as I have a potato leaf from my lucky dip collection. I planted it outside yesterday. As it was the only one out of the 170 that germinated and I can’t work out from my list of varieties which it is.  Just wondering if I isolated it somehow? So it didn’t cross with the other lucky dip plant. That it would still produce? 

Any advice welcome.

Another good, reasonable question, that I have no idea the answer to. Sorry.

Tomatoes are self pollinating so don't need company.
