Farouk starts with ... Hi All, I have planted an Inga Ice-cream bean from seed which came fresh from my uncles fruiting tree which he chopped down!! And I never got to taste it, as I found it in our family fridge when I got home one day & it had already become to old/damaged to eat, so I saved the seed & planted it hoping one day to taste it.. 10+ years later still waiting to see the flower, hasn't flowered once yet, dad gave it the chop a couple of times to the ground & it shot back up its now around 3-5metres tall & wide but still no flowers, any tips ?? Other than putting electrical fencing to keep it from not getting chopped again. | About the Author Farouk SOUTH WENTWORTHVILLE,2145,NSW 21st January 2019 3:38pm #UserID: 8110 Posts: 206 View All Farouk's Edible Fruit Trees |

Pauline Staff of Daley's Nursery says... Hi Farouk, it could be that its missing some micronutrients or simply potassium which is essential for flowering. This can be sourced from a good gardening store. Often cutting a plant back heavily will shock it into fruiting, but this doesn't seem to have helped you. Have you viewed the Daleys You tube video on cincturing, this is a technique to induce flowering.
