Today we’ll be transplanting my 2 year old Pitaya / dragonfruit plants grown from seed, and growing cuttings. I’ll also be starting some very rare varieties like and orange yellow dragon fruit and showing you how to grow dragon fruit (pitaya) from seed. The varieties include Frankies Red and an Orange Hybrid variety – such an amazing looking fruit with orange skin and pink flesh.
Dragon fruit are a climbing jungle cactus that flowers at night and produces a delicious tropical fruit. They can be grown in tropical and subtropical climates, or in colder areas if protected in a greenhouse or kept away from cold, frost and damp conditions.
They can easily be propagated from seeds and from cuttings.
These plants are also known as Pitaya , Pitahaya , Stenocereus , Hylocereus undatus , Hylocereus costaricensis , Hylocereus megalanthus ,
Cactaceae
