Ozbek Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I was in Ipswich, Qld over the weekend and saw a 3m tall Pilosocereus with flower buds. For those of you who grow Pilosocereus in SE Qld or NNSW, are your plants in a similar state? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TribalJames Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Don't know, i have Pilosocereus it does not even think to flower. Perhaps, i do something wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozbek Posted June 26, 2018 Author Share Posted June 26, 2018 I looked up the address on google earth. Amusingly, the plant (and what I assume is the owner) is visible in street view. Next time I'm in that area, I'll try to get in touch with the grower for more info. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozbek Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 Tried to speak to the resident of the house for more info on the plant, but nobody seemed to be home. Anybody able to provide species ID? Any guesses on how long it would take for fruit to ripen upon successful pollination? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozbek Posted August 2, 2018 Author Share Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) It continues to flower and looks like at least 3 berries have formed. The grower tells me that its fruits never get much larger than their current size before aborting.
