My mum used to grow a dragonfruit tree at her garden a few years back; however, the tree has neither blossomed nor produced a single fruit. Thus, we visited the dragonfruit farm to look for the secret recipe.
To grow a dragonfruit tree successfully,
1. You will need 4 individual dragonfruit cactus-like trunks.
1. Cut both ends of each trunk and tie them around a stable pillar.
2. To determine which end of the trunk facing upward, you ensure the thorns are pointing upward.
3. Fertilize it on monthly basis.
4. When it grows taller, you need to tie it at its upper trunk again to give support for the plant to grow upward untill 4 feet height.
According to the expert, the tree will take about four months to grow to 4 feet tall. With the adequate condition, it will blossom on monthly basis. From flowering to harvest, it takes only 1 month. Hope you have a fruitful dragonfruit tree if you plant one today!
