Here is a link I found that has some info. on seeds and fruit ripening etc. I was wondering about pollination of these plants. Mine is quite large and I dont ever get fruit. I was talking to some people on the tropicals in oz forum about this (a lot of people seem to grow it over there). I wonder if they need another plant for pollination? Or if you need a certain type of insect pollinator? I have seen hummingbird moths around mine but haven't got fruit yet. I started another one from seed last spring (Park Seed) and it is @ 12 inches tall now. I hear they take awhile from seed to bloom. I sarted it in a reg. seed starter/greenhouse on a heat mat with a florescent light etc. It germinated pretty easily. Anyhow here is the link... |
