Tropical Hibiscus Age and Seed setting

I have a 10 plus year old "Butterfly" all yellow hibiscus that will produce seeds when pollinated. I was wondering if anyone has noticed a relation between the age of the plant and its willingness to produce seed pods?

    What do you want seeds for, cuttings work just fine. I checked Dave's Garden and it says; Seed Collecting:
    N/A: plant does not set seed, flowers are sterile, or plants will not come true from seed

    The seeds are how you get new combinations of hibiscus. I want to see what kinds of combinations i can get with my plants...
