    It's good to grow them from seed, or save young ones grown up from bird droppings, as they may become new varieties with interesting flavoured fruits and new flower colours. 🌸😋🌵🌵🌵🌸

    I have grown a saguaro from a branch. They will root. I bought two branches from a cactus farm, one of them rooted and the other one failed.

    I’ve got one growing into my roof in the back yard, so I’ve got to move it. I appreciate your video. Looking forward to propagating it and hopefully give it some love to get bigger fruit

    I'm from Paraguay and here we have a big variety of Cereus species. Some of them are 1.5 meter tall, and some of them almost 10 meters; some of them have white flowers and white pulp, and some of them have pink flowers and red pulp. I'm trying to gather different species to cultivate and maybe do some hybrids. On summer Ican walk 1 square from my house and find one of them with fruit, and still people here doesn't know it is edible... It's a real waste

    I read this paper from Israel where they’re growing this commercially that if you hand pollinate with pollen from a separate variety (not the same clone), the fruit could get 40 percent larger compare to the one where you let them self pollinate. Biggest problem right now is getting your hand on those improve varieties with better/bigger fruit, just you said people only focus on the ornamental part of it.

      I wonder if you can pollinate with dragon fruit

    From what a understand, there are three fruit types: candy, which are small apples. Apple, like youre showing and "The pear". Hope you came through surgery excellently!

    Great video! Does this fruit in part shade? Growing on the tree trunk is a great idea. Wish I'd seen this sooner, I just got spineless prickly pear, but from your taste description should've gotten this, I love yellow dragon fruit. Thank you so much!

    Question….we just bought a house and we have 3 of these in our yard two of which are huge probably 20 feet and everyone tells us that they are worth a lot of money. Do people transport these mature cactus and replant? These are overtaking my yard and I don’t know what to do… lol!

    • @FruitTree
      @FruitTree  2 роки тому +4

      Cut arms off. Let them dry for a week to 10 days then put them in a pot with cactus mix. They will root After a few months and you can sell them.

    I was given a couple of branches, to propagate, and I’ve planted them yet the confusion stars there, some people say planted and leave it there don’t water it, yet some people say water it often once it takes then you need to do it sporadically, which one it is
    I thank you before hand and hope to hear from you

    So I read that you need more than one flower to pollinate. What I understood from your video is that it doesn’t need another flower? Help. I have a flower about to blossom and wondering what to do. I wish I could post a photo. I am in Georgia.

    How often do you water them?

      @FruitTree  2 роки тому +1

      In the hot months a good deep soak once a month helps. If it rains hard skip it.
      In the winter hardly ever.

      They are more tropical than the native cactus but they do need to dry out a bit between watering.
      The bad thing about over watering is they will get too big too fast

      If it grows too fast it can split open. It can also get top heavy and fall over. That won't kill it but it won't be as good and the natural growth
