as cleistogamous flowers are invariably autogamous...there is no chance of cross pollen landing on stigma...so by this they can produce assured seed set in absence of pollinators also

Heya !!!
Here's your answer !!!
▶The flowers of Oxalis and viola are cleistogamous that means that they are non opening flowers ...
▶Since, they don't open there is no chance of other pollen reaching these flowers...
▶The pollination is these flowers is self pollination (Autogamy ) since, the pollen of same flower reach the stigma without any external agent (pollinator)...
▶ Hence, The Oxalis and Viola plants are assured to produce seeds even in the absence of pollinators ...
