Hylocereus undatus (white fleshed dragonfruit)
 
10 x Seeds per Pack
 
Growing conditions and ripeness of the fruit can impact flavour, but nonetheless it’s visually impressive and packed full of nutrients, like Vitamin C. 
Their stunning large flowers are easily over 20cm wide and appear in summer.  They are yellowy green on the outside and open to a scented white, lily-like bloom.  Flowers open in the evening and only last one night. 
 
Propagation of Dragon Fruits 
Dragon fruit grow easily from seed.  To grow from seed, keep moist in a warm position, away from direct sunlight.  Seeds will sprout 2-3 weeks later and can be potted up into punnets.  Water weekly with eco-seaweed to develop strong seedlings and pot into individual pots once large enough.  Seedlings will take several years to reach fruiting size. 
 
How To Grow Dragon Fruit 
Dragon fruits like warm conditions with mild winters and no frost.  They can tolerate the occasional short burst of cold weather.  Ideally, they should be kept above 10° C.  They can handle heat, drought, humidity and poor soils but will grow tastier fruit with regular watering and rich soil.
