Combo Dragon White & Yellow Colombiana Variety Fruit Plant (Pack of 2)

Product Features and Variety

The Dragon Fruit, or Pitaya (Hylocereus species), is an exotic, vine-like climbing cactus. This combo pack includes two distinct, high-demand varieties: the classic White Dragon Fruit and the prized Yellow Colombiana. These plants are propagated through Cutting or Grafting, methods that ensure the plants are true-to-name and promote quicker establishment and earlier fruiting compared to seed-grown plants. They are suitable for cultivation in both open ground with a support structure and large containers across diverse Indian climates.

• Varieties: White Dragon Fruit and Yellow Colombiana Dragon Fruit.
• Type: Vine-like Climbing Cactus (requires a sturdy support/trellis).
• Propagation Method: Cutting/Grafted Plant/Tree. This method helps the plant bear fruit faster.
• Size: 1-2 Feet Height (Pack of 2 plants).
• Suitability: Highly adaptable, thriving in tropical and subtropical Indian regions.

The Fruit: White & Yellow Colombiana Dragon Fruit

This combo offers a contrast in flavors and appearance, providing a diverse harvest from your garden:

• White Dragon Fruit: Features vibrant pink or red skin with crisp, white flesh speckled with tiny black seeds. It offers a mildly sweet and refreshing taste.
• Yellow Colombiana: Known for its bright yellow skin and translucent white flesh filled with small seeds. This variety is generally sweeter and has a more intense flavor profile than the white variety.

Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates

Sunlight and Climate Needs

As a cactus, the Dragon Fruit plant requires significant sun exposure for flowering and fruiting.

• Sunlight: Requires full and direct sunlight (at least 6 hours per day) for optimal growth and fruit production.
• Support: Provide a strong trellis, pillar, or vertical support structure for the climbing stems to anchor onto.

Watering and Soil

Proper soil and controlled watering are critical to prevent root rot, a common issue for this plant.

• Soil: Use a well-draining, slightly acidic to neutral soil mix. A blend of garden soil, sand, and organic matter is ideal.
• Watering: Water deeply and thoroughly, but allow the top few inches of soil to dry out completely before watering again. Reduce watering during the cooler months. Avoid waterlogging.
• Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer during the main growing seasons (spring and summer).

The secure paper core packing method used for shipping ensures the plant is protected and well-ventilated during transit, guaranteeing you receive two healthy, genuine variety plants.
