Cheers,

Hi, I'm growing it in Russia for the second year. Last summer there was a plentiful flowering, but there were no fruits. I found information that the fruits are only in the second year. In the winter it was in my house,now it is growing again in the greenhouse,I am waiting for the fruits this summer.

Same here. Waiting for my second year. It had explosive growth for its first year and I had to deal with spine covered “vines” all over the food forest. Climbed through a few papaya trees and over a lemon drop Mangosteen lol!
The best time to plant a fruit tree was 20 years ago. The next best time to plant one is now.
