# One should not make the Bracha on a tree which was made from grafting two species, however, there is what to rely on to make the Bracha. <ref>Chazon Ovadyah ([[Pesach]] pg 15), Nitei Gavriel ([[Pesach]] 6:13). Yabia Omer 5:20, Sdei Chemed [[Berachot]] 2:7, Minchat Yitzchak 3:25:3, and Ben Ish Chai Parashat Reeh halacha 11 all say that its preferable not too as well. </ref> | # One should not make the Bracha on a tree which was made from grafting two species, however, there is what to rely on to make the Bracha. <ref>Chazon Ovadyah ([[Pesach]] pg 15), Nitei Gavriel ([[Pesach]] 6:13).

# | # It is questionable whether one may make a Bracha on a fruit tree which didn’t produce fruit this year. <Ref>Mishnat Yosef 1:60 writes that even if in this year there’s no fruit but it’s a fruit tree you can make the Bracha. However, LeHorot natan 5:8 and Maaseh Chemed (2 note 64) argue. Chemdat Avraham 2:10 says it is not lechatchila but if there’s nothing else you can make the Bracha. </ref> | ||
