Hello All,
I just bought a pitomba tree that is about 4 ft tall in a very large pot. There was 1 ripe fruit that day. In the 2 weeks that I have owned it, over 20 fruits have ripened and there are dozens of flowers and green fruit ripening. I am totally thrilled !!!
I have planted all the seeds keeping them moist and out of the sun. I haven't seen any sign of life yet ... should I put them in the sun now, wait until they sprout then full sun, or should I do partial shade as they take off ?
The tree has no lower branches. The nursery had 3 other trees all had the same issue. Should I be thinking ahead to graft any seedlings on to the trunk of the original tree ? I have never grafted before but it seems like there are many experts in grafting on this forum, so maybe you could help a newbie out !
I will probably have to keep these trees growing in pots, since I am running out of yard LOL
Thanks in advance for your thoughts and Happy Gardening
