DRAGON FRUIT / PITAYA - Red Fleshed seeds

DRAGON FRUIT - Red Fleshed

30 sds

Perennial

Native to Mexico and south America, dragon fruit loves warm tropical and subtropical climates but adapts well to a wide range of climates and can even come back from a mild frost. In climates with a frosty winter, we recommend growing in pots and moving to a sheltered spot over the winter. 

Dragon fruit grows as a sprawling cactus, with long thick arm like stems. Best attached to an upright pole or trellis for easiest management and fruit collecting. As a cacti they have excellent drought tolerance so soil should be friable and free draining. 

Seed germination can be difficult for beginners, may take 1-3 weeks to emerge.
