Perry the Pom starts with ... G'day I have a large 10 year old Grumichama fruit tree. When it flowers there are thousands and the tree look beautiful. Sadly 99% do not set. I have managed to sample a few but for some reason the fruit never set. Please could somebody tell me what I need to do. The tree is very health. It is planted next to my compost bins in full sun and always well watered. Thank you. | About the Author Perry the Pom Maryborough Qld. 9th May 2010 2:59pm #UserID: 3703 Posts: 1 View All Perry the Pom's Edible Fruit Trees |
HappyEarth says... Not sure Perry, sounds like you are doing everything right. I presume you have lots of bees pollinating the flowers? Rich www.happyearth.com.au | About the Author HappyEarth Wollongong 13th May 2010 7:00am #UserID: 2553 Posts: 181 View All HappyEarth's Edible Fruit Trees |

amanda says... Thanks guys - it will be a painful lesson never forgotten! :-( I might get lucky BJ - only had the one flush last year tho. My second tree must be really close to fruiting age - maybe next year - I heard somewhere that they take 4 years? (it's probably lucky that the 2 flowers fell off...only 2 fruit would have been the worst tease) | About the Author amanda19 Geraldton.
