I'd like to report on my 'David Bowie' Dragon Fruit.
This past month it's been growing really fast, I suppose it's gotten established at its location. If I remember correctly, I planted it this year in May.
I'm using the Chemically Pressure Treated Wooden Post Method. I have about seven 'David Bowie' sections planted around the wood pole. This is the method used at Pine Island Nursery, where I got my 'David Bowie' from. Much to my shagrin, I've noticed that the roots of the Dragon Fruit hate the chemically pressure treated wood of the pole, just by looking at it, one can just tell, the roots don't want to cling to it. After a big section of the 'David Bowie' fell off the pole, I had to resource to Plastic Butterfly Ties, to affix the plant back on to the wood pole. And, it worked, the 'David Bowie' has been growing fast this month. Although, it hasn't yet reached the top of the pole yet. But, at the pace it's going, it shouldn't be long.
Right now I'm waiting for flower(s) to appear at the tips of the pole climbing plant.
