Fruits on P. racemosa

Deep South Coastal, TX(Zone 10a)

This vine has made several pods this year but they usually fall off before getting this big. Does anyone know if P. racemosa makes viable seeds? Wonder if the P. foetida hirsutissima pollinated it or is it self fertile?
I have three this size! The picture is kind of dark, it was taken just at daylight(and the wind was blowing and I was cold)

Now if I can germinate them and not kill the baby seedlings. I might need to find a foster parent for them, lol.
