Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / Wanted: Pitaya cuttings
« on: March 21, 2013, 06:56:32 AM »
Hey there,
does anyone have Pitayas that already flower? I have grown three kinds from seeds but here it's said they need up to 20 years to start flowering. Don't know anybody around here that has an already producing plant.

Could somebody help me out with cuttings? The yellow-skinned or pink-fleshed variety would be great.
Not sure if it's possible to ship 'em to Europe though.. but as long as plants are sent without soil it's permitted, right?

Thanks in advance.
Julia

Magnifique! :)
You really live in a nice area and your plants look amazing. Do you plant the grafted cherimoyas or do you sell them?
Keep up the good work

Thanks a lot for welcoming me :)
Well.. last year my white sapote flowered and also developed tiny fruits but eventually dropped all of them. Right now there are flower buds on their way again... fingers crossed it'll work this time. The mountain papaya will flower this spring (I will share seeds).
Most of the plants are still small so I guess I gotta wait at least 2 more years.

Hey everyone,
am Julia and I study landscape architecture near Munich. Yeh, it's cold over here but nonetheless I try to grow tropical fruit trees indoors. I started 2 years ago and am always looking for new stuff, sooo addictive - this forum is great. I have already seen so many fruits I didn't know before.
So, cheers ;)

Some weeks ago I found an earth worm in the pot of my black sapote. So far so good.. the plant grows super fast at the moment.. not sure if it's thanks to the worm but at least it doesn't seem to be harmful (yet).
