Thank you for doing this video. We’ve been trying to grow dragon fruit for years. We have two varieties - one red and one yellow. The red ones flowers really well now but the yellow one has not flowered at all. We’ve tried to self pollinate the red dragon fruit flowers but with no success. Maybe we might have some success with pollen from Eyal. It’s so impressive all the varieties he is able to grow. I love his sense of cooperation with other growers.

Hi Charles, how interesting...and such a beautiful fruit!!! The insides look as brilliant as some of my cacti bloom (as well as the dragon fruit bloom itself)! Thanks for sharing with us! But I still love my eurekas, lisbons, and washington navels! Take care! 🙂 Al W.
Good afternoon Al, That’s right- you have an amazing collection of blooming succulents… perhaps you can add dragon fruits to your collection! :-) I hope your citrus collection continues to grow stronger from year-to-year! Charles 🍋🍊
@@IVOrganic You bet! Cacti and citrus are doing well...was a very good summer for me here in West Central IL! Great to hear from you!!! Your videos are always AWESOME!!! Blessings to you and yours...
Have no idea what kind I bought in my Nova Scotia grocery store but did not like it. Then read that it should be eaten cooled off first. Did that & what a difference. Loved it. Dried & planted some seeds, like I do with almost every type of fruit I eat. Now have a cute little houseplant growing. Of course, in the far North East, nothing much will come of it, except being an unusual house plant, but it is special to me.
Hello Matt 👋 You should try incorporating dragon fruit into your backyard orchard! American Beauty was my personal favorite in this taste-testing collaboration! I too am on the hunt to adding better varieties to my garden! :-) Happy Gardening, Charles 🌱👍
Hello 47retta 👋 Here’s a helpful collaboration with Richard Le discussing the different varieties, growing tips & pollination requirements: m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o3bNlZZAV2s.html
Great observation Mr. Worthington. I just realized (with your comment) that the more popular trellis design is using a 4x4 with a square box on top for the dragon vines to growth though over into an umbrella pattern. I’ll ask more question on the trellis design the next time we collaborate with Eyal! Happy Gardening, Charles 🌱👍
