Hi Oscar and welcome to NGA. What you are describing is called cleistogamy. It happens with self fertile plants from time to time. Flower buds don't open but pollinate themselves.
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
