Perhaps you have a picture you could upload to show us your carambola?
If you not in the "FOR BEST RESULTS" section of this page:
http://www.daleysfruit.com.au/plant/Carambola-Star-Fruit.htm
It says that "Some varieties may be self fertile but it is best to plant two for cross pollination."

I don't know the variety of mine, however I also had fruit the first season. It had fruit on it when purchased so I am assuming it does need cross pollination. Kim did yours have immature fruit on yours when you got it or did it actually self pollinate? I have had several blushes of flowers since. I am going to get it a friend.
I was only anonymous because I forgot to put my name in.
Thanks, I was hoping I had self pollinator.

For Tran,
I do not know the Variety of mine but it has fruited 3 times so it has been in ground for 5 yrs. No need for Pollination here and as you may see by the Photo i have Pruned well back after last fruiting. Right now it is puuting out "Tip Growth" and it keeps producing hundreds of fruit each year

Hi Tran,
Some carambola selections do benefit from cross pollination. Kary though is self pollinating. If your tree has been flowering for the past few years and no fruit I would suggest that another selection would be benefecial. Seedling trees only take 2-3 years to crop so maybe it might be worth the option of planting a low cost seedling.
