Thanks! Look in stores right now for yellow skinned dragon fruit from Ecuador. It's very sweet. However, so far, I liked a variety from Wallace Ranch in Fallbrook... They called it Asunta, but most growers attending the Pithaya Festival called it an Ax, or Asunta cross. Anyways I have a cutting of it. Green skin and purple flesh. It tasked like a kiwi mixed with banana. Thanks for the comment :)
Something u said got me thinking they taste better if they r grown in hot climates. Is that the case? I live on a tropical island so that would be awesome
@@RAREDRAGONFRUIT cuz of u saying that I ordered 2 new types. Cuz since the got climate makee them taste better. I figured the BEST ones to get to make a crazy good dragon fruit would be sugar dragons n palora yellow dragon fruits. I bet they will taste AMAZING!!!
It depends on the variety and the duration of the frost. I only covered my Paloras and Frankie's Red last winter with a trap and wrapped them in Christmas lights when temperatures dipped below 34 degrees. It happened for 3 or 4 nights and the plants are fine. All the other varieties were left uncovered and none of them died. Temperatures below 32 degrees will cause damage to the plants.
@@RAREDRAGONFRUIT That's an awesome information that I need to know. I live in houston texas and we do get temp lower that 32. I just started growing DF a few weeks ago too hahah. Thanks again
Hi! I'll make a new video on the topic this week. Bring them inside if temps dip below 40 and they are small. You can also do this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RK-x3Au1yhk.html
Yes, some people have started large collections. I have no idea where they got their seeds. I may have to take a tour of a farm and work on collecting.
