Are they self pollinating? I am considering adding one to the back

Yes except for rare cultivars. Bees also help but apparently some wind
pollination also takes place. You can get many cultivars that vary in size,
time of fruiting, chilling requirement and type of fruit. Look around for
what suits your garden and climate. If you have room for more than one get
varieties that fruit at different times.
