Dragon Fruit is a popular tropical fruit native to Mexico and South America. It looks amazing: vibrant red skin, green scales, and white pulp with black seeds. It tastes great: think a cross between a pear and a kiwi. And, lots of vitamins and minerals make Dragon Fruit one of the best super fruits available! Dragon fruit is a vining cactus, so it needs some support to grow properly. Grow in slightly acidic, well-draining and sandy soil in a large container outside in the summer, then bring indoors when temperatures start to cool. Prune to contain size. Huge flowers appear in summer, to open for one night only.
