My mom gave me some cuttings from her 3-year old dragonfruit plant on Thanksgiving. I’ve put a couple in the soil but haven’t seen any growth yet. At least they’re not shriveled up. That’s a good sign, I guess.

She hasn’t gotten any fruit yet, and her Vietnamese friend told her she just needs to fertilize it.

If you decide to grow one, the ones that are red or purple inside are supposed to be a lot more flavorful than the type with the white.

Thanks for the info. When I read up on them, there seems to be a bunch of different varieties, some sweet, some tart.
