I am on vacation with my family and we got these dragon fruits from the local farmers market. I am wanting to grow some at home so I've collected seeds. I've read that it takes up to 7 years to expect fruit from a seedling dragon fruit whereas from a cutting you can expect fruit in a couple years. I wanted to find out if I cut a cutting of my new seedling could I expect fruit sooner or does it have to be from a plant that has produced fruit before. Thank you.
It would need to be from a mature plant. It will take quite a while for your seedling to mature. Here is more:
See pic. This 30 foot dragon tree(?) came with the house. How much moisture would a tree of this size of this species give off? I know dragon trees are good at increasing the humidity in a room. This is huge, 25ft.
They are one of the houseplants purported to help clean the air. They don't add humidity to the room, but they thrive if they live in a humid room. They can tolerate average home humidity, however. Have you thought about cutting it back some?
