Grapefruit Tree Not Growing Fruit? Why??
I have had a grapefruit tree for over 2 years. The leaves are growing and everything else is growing, but the grapefruits aren’t. Why is this? Our grape vines are growing just fine, and we live in Arizona. Grape vines aren’t usually found in AZ and Grapefruits are. What am I doing wrong?
I am not for sure, but 2 years may be too young to expect fruit.
I live in Arizona, too. You might try calling a local tree nursery.
If you are serious, here are some links that will get you good info.
You only have one tree? If multiples, are they mixed? Plants have male and female varieties just like animals. They need both to pollenate and produce. If you aren’t getting fruit, pardon the pun, your tree isn’t getting any.
If you started your tree from seed it will take between 5-15 years to start producing fruit, if it will at all, some never do. If you purchased your tree, ask at the place you bought it from.
It takes a few years for it to produce fruit regularly. If it’s planted in full sun, is deep enough for planting (not too close to the surface), and gets plenty of water, it should produce fruit. If you can aerate it, that would help too.
I believe that it takes 5 yrs of tree growth to produce the grapefruit ask at home depot or lowes
I would wait one more year and see..somewhere between 3 and a half and four years you’ll see the grapefruits..☺
