I am looking for some great dragon fruit varieties and I am willing to trade my 1 gallon starters for it. Please PM me if interested. Thanks!

I've been researching Dragon Fruit for a few weeks now. I plan on ordering some from Pine Island Nursery soon. I will keep you in mind.

As i have heard Dragon fruit flowers open up once in a year. now am growing them in pots but is it realy needed to polinate them manually?

Thanks, Rob!

Eli, while doing research, I did run into some varieties that were self-fertile so...

Aloha, Eli.  The flowers open once...at night.  Unfortunately bees, birds, and other pollen carrying animals don't fly at night, hence manual pollenating helps with fruiting.  Is it necessary?  Some say yes.  However, I have a friend who swears he never manually pollenates his flowers and has more than enough fruits, he has to give them away.

Ryan,

I acquired two more varieties as a gift from a member here......I will take a look at what they are in a bit.  

Cool, Wills! Looking forward to it.
