Dragon Fruit - Hylocereus undatus


Dragon Fruit, Pitaya - Hylocereus undatus

Dragon Fruit, Pitaya can be found from Texas through to Mexico down to Peru and Argentina. The French have introduced Dragon Fruit to Vietnam 100 years ago and have been growing them  commercially for many years. They were originally grown for the kings and wealthy families in Vietnam. It is now cultivated around the world in tropical regions.

Dragon Fruit is a night flowering cactus. The flowers are very fragrant and are used in Mexico to perfume the night air in their courtyards.

A friend of mine who grows this amazing cactus told me that it has climbed onto her tree. Dragon fruit may also grow over the ground or climb onto trees using aerial roots.

Pitaya is related to epiphyllum and likes tropical or subtropical climates. It will tolerate short periods of frost, but prolonged cold will damage or kill the cactus.
A customer told me that the seeds germinated very easy for him.

My friend had such a good crop of dragon fruit that she put them in the juicer added a little vodka (or whatever you like) and ice cubes for an alcoholic drink. She had a party at the time and her guests loved it.
