The Fruit, Flowers, and Blooming

Dragon fruit plants are known for their beautiful, fragrant flowers that typically bloom at night, followed by the distinctive fruit.

• White-Fleshed Dragon Fruit: This common variety has bright pink skin and a white, seed-speckled interior. The flavour is mildly sweet and refreshing.
• Pink/Red-Fleshed Dragon Fruit: These varieties boast a vibrant pink or red exterior with a deep pink or red/purple interior flesh. They are generally sweeter with a rich, berry-like taste.
• Yellow Colombiana: Known for its bumpy, spiky yellow skin and white, juicy flesh, this variety is often cited as the sweetest type of dragon fruit.
• Fruiting: Cutting-grown or grafted plants can begin to bear fruit in as little as 1 to 2 years. The main fruiting season in India generally runs from June to November.

Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates

Sunlight and Climate Needs

As a climbing cactus native to tropical regions, Dragon Fruit requires consistent warmth and ample light to thrive and produce a good yield.

• Sunlight: Choose a location that receives full and direct sunlight (a minimum of 6-8 hours a day) for optimal growth.
• Support: A strong, sturdy support system or trellis is essential as the plant is a climbing vine and needs vertical support.

Watering and Soil

While the Dragon Fruit plant is drought-tolerant once established, attentive watering is necessary for young and potted plants, especially in India’s warm climate.

• Soil: Plant in well-draining soil, such as sandy loam or loamy texture, with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (5.5 to 7.5). Avoid heavy clay and areas prone to waterlogging.
• Watering: Water consistently during the active growing and fruiting season, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out completely between waterings. Over-watering can lead to stem or root rot.

The secure paper core packing method used for shipping ensures the plants are protected and well-ventilated during transit, ensuring you receive healthy, genuine varieties.
