When does Nandina domestica bear fruit?

Under normal circumstances, Nandina domestica can bloom and bear fruit in the second year after planting, but it is greatly affected by daily management. If it is not properly maintained, it may not bear fruit for several years. Factors that affect the fruiting of Nandina domestica include light, water, fertilizer, pruning, pollination and many other reasons.

Why Nandina domestica does not bear fruit?

1. The surrounding air humidity is low, the quality is poor, and there are many pollutants such as smoke, dust, and toxic gases;

2. The light is too strong or too little;

3. Excessive application of nitrogen fertilizer causes high soil pH;

4. There is frequent rainfall during the flowering period, making pollination difficult.

How to solve the problem of Nandina domestica not bearing fruit

1. Do not expose it to strong sunlight and should be placed in a semi-shaded and well-ventilated place.

2. If the soil in the pot is too dry or too wet, water it once a day in summer and spray water on the leaves to increase the air humidity and meet the conditions of the Nandina that it likes, which is a warm and humid environment.

3. Artificial pollination. The rainy season in the south from May to July is also the flowering period of South India, and pollination is often poor. You can use a brush dipped in pollen to pollinate multiple times on rainless days.

4. Prune and control the roots. If the branches are too lush, some inner branches should be removed to facilitate ventilation, but do not prune excessively. You can also cut off the roots 30-40 cm around the plant.

5. Apply less nitrogen fertilizer and more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. No fertilizer is needed during the flowering and fruiting period.
