Dragon Fruit, now at Lowes!
Comments (17)Plantaddict, where in the valley are you at? I'm going to plant a few in the ground in my back yard (my others are all in pots). I'm interested in the guatemalan. I noticed the red ones at HD were Hylocereus polyrhizus, I've seen red ones from the same growers that were the Undatus. HD's whites were Undatus. The lesson I learned this year, too much sun, not enough shade, except for the one planted under a Mulberry. The other ones were not getting enough shade from the hibiscus. Next year, I'll put a few in between my plumerias that should give more shade. Now that the sun intensity has waned, I'm hoping for lots more growth like back in April and May....See MoreBasic care for Dragon Fruit
Comments (20)I have one that is a year and a half old, in a pot, I used to train it all up...now it is just going on its own, one arm is going up the mulberry tree, and a few others are going into the shutters, and a few in the bamboo. I put one plant out that got too exposed and it lost a few limbs from being burned. Key is not too much heat sunlight...tough when it hits 115 degrees... I rescued one that I had left for dead, put in in the shade and it exploded with 18 new arms. Crazy plant. No flowers yet.......See MoreWill potted Dragon Fruit plant ever bloom in northern climates.
Comments (1)Mine has bloomed and produced softball sized fruit in a container. However, first, I have a greenhouse, and second, it is (was) roughly a 30 gal container with a built-in 2x2 trellis structure to support the plant, about 6' high. I have since rooted cuttings and planted the thing in the ground in the GH because the trellis rotted....See MoreIf anyone is looking for a red fleshed dragon fruit..
