Re: Dragon Fruit update
A friend of mine in Puerto Rico had said his have never flowered but yesterday discovered that he had many flowers and fruits. They've climbed up his trees 40-50 feet and it seems that the were too deeply shaded until they dropped back down to get sunlight. Fortunately, he said his trees have a good branch structure to make for easy climbing. I still don't know that I'd limb that high up in a tree to pick fruit, though. Fortunately, I don't think I'll ever have that problem. Even my PR friend says he plans to eventually plant some on a trellis.
I'm going to eventually plant mine into portions cut out of 50 gallon plastic barrels and will probably build a trellis similar to what Richard has shown. I'll move mine around in the loader bucket of my small tractor (I have fork attachments so I can move around pallets).
