    I have two clementine trees growing. I just planted the seeds for fun last year. One is about 1.5 feet tall and the other is about 8 inches tall. I don't know if they will make it to producing fruit but I figured it would be a fun experiment.

    The seed sprouts a lot faster in water. I've grown a ton of dragon fruit cactus in my Aerogardens. Yes, you can grow cactus in water, I have them now all over my house in various hydroponic setups. I also replanted some in soil. All have lots of air roots and I think it's probably the easiest cactus to grow and propagate. They will never fruit indoors but they make beautiful plants.

      @Help Rescue Peaches the Conure Hi, I grow mine in 15 gallon black nursery pots and put frost cloth on top and around the plants before the frost hits. It'll be challenging when the plants get bigger. I guess I could wrap the longer branches with frost cloth. I think the dragon plants would be thrilled to be in a green house.

    Just like succulents dragon fruit seeds can grow either from the seeds or from the plant just like you would grow a plant from a leaf as long as it stays intact becomes the host
    The leaf that you use to grow the plants Gives nourishment to the new plant
    The ones that grew inside of the fruit is getting its nourishment from the fruit
    Since succulents need more water when they're tiny it helps the plant to get the excess nourishment
    You also have a better chance of those seedlings grabbing the original flavor of the dragon fruit that you grabbed it from

      @Carol Nolan. I believe I read that dragon fruit like full sun. They bloom in June through September. They like compost, manure also a super bloom fertilizer. Mine has only bloomed once last year. There is a lot of information online about growing them.

    • @RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy
      @RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy  Год назад +1

      I don’t know anything about your dragon fruit plant, but if it was a very young plant, when you got it, it could take two or three years until it throws its first bloom. They do like the warmth, but they can take partial shade, the dragon fruit plant in my bird garden, The whole base of the plant is in complete shade. The top of the plant is in full sun. They do need lots of water, and they do not like to be dried out, so make sure where you live that even in the heat they are kept damp, well watered.

    I just put some seeds on top of the soil and covered it to maintain moisture. Several sprouted. I then proceeded to forget about the baby plants and they all died, though I have to say they lasted quite a long time. My zone gets cold though, so it might have been the cold. Then I lost the rest of the seeds and it has only been recently that I saw some ok dragon fruits back at the local market. If I see some yellows, I want to buy one. Or maybe one day, I can find my seeds again and see if they are still viable.
    As for sprouting seeds in the fruit, you eat enough fruits, you will see sprouting seeds. I have seen them in apples, pears, mangoes, avocadoes, etc.
    I have yet to figure out how to keep my dragon fruit warm enough in winter. If I can figure that out, I will try baby plants again.
