Sowing Orange Seeds

    We got some oranges recently that are really delicious.
    It looks like in general oranges do grow true from seed, however I'm not sure if they are self pollinating or how that works for oranges. Has anyone any suggestions, should I try a few seeds and keep a pair that sprout to pollinate each other or is that a runner at all?
    I'm thinking of growing against a SW facing wall in a sheltered garden so I'm hoping they may get enough heat to ripen.

    Pollination is fine with a single plant but really needs beds or other pollinators. In winter it would need to be Brough in to a frost free shed or greenhouse. Best grown in a container.
