14 Different Dragon Fruit Varieties

[@audreyasbey3745]

I saw my first dragon fruit while visiting mango growers gardens. I tasted my first one a couple months later. Now thanks to you and you videos, I will be building a trellis in the morning

[@KTx-nj8ei]

Love your video of the variety of dragon plants you got. Please do keep it up and I can’t wait to see what fruits you’ll get from which pots but mostly can’t wait to see it’s fruits and see how you describe how they will taste in your future.

[@BirdyOfficial]

Hi! What is the trellis height from ground?

[@TheJguillory2008]

Wow I love watching your videos on dragon fruit I just ordered two varieties and will be trying my luck with growing them I hope they grow as good as yours

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

Thank you for watching my videos! Good luck with your Dragon Fruits, you will do well and achieve the same results as me. My videos will help guide you there.

[@adamudada7847]

Please where can I buy the dragon fruits? I am from Nigeria

[@kuya.g]

Wow! Cool man! Thanks for sharing this! a new friend here.

[@eduardovillegas2267]

Great video man. I collect and grow dragon fruit in the LA area. Lavern is my friends variety! Keep us updated on your plants. 👍

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

Thanks for watching! Do you or your friend happen to know if Lavern is self fertile or does it need to be cross pollinated to set fruit?

[@eduardovillegas2267]

Grafting Dragonfruit Lavern is not self fertile

[@ComeJardin]

Hi, Richard. Where can i get a Tricia cutting? Tricia is recommended for my zone 8B. (supposedly)

[@shamanking5195]

do you know a good reliable cuttings source,a good place where to get some cuttings ??.

[@justyalicea2602]

Does anyone have a good answer to this?

[@lightsfromjesus8346]

Thank you for sharing your insights about dragon fruits, they are very inspiring and helpful😊 Can you do a video about creating new variety of dragon fruit ? God bless 😊

[@GreenthumbsGarden]

Great videos mate, I just got a couple of Dragon Fruits the other week and i can't believe how fast they grow. i love the supports you use and im tempted to find a couple of big plastic tubs and remove pot with a frame like this. im tempted also just to put them directly in the ground.

[@kyleledotnet]

Wow. I love your channel. I want to grow some too.

[@noiseparty]

I grow the Voodoo Child variety also, and they grow really fast. I have a 6 month cutting that's fruiting already. I use Dr. Earth's Bud & Bloom to fertilize.

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

That’s great, congrats on your fruits! My voodoo child is taking its time. I’ve heard great things about Dr. Earth. I personally use FloraNova Grow & Bloom.

[@amathonn]

OUTSTANDING video! So many of us have a variety of varieties that we picked up here and there and have no idea what variety they are or are descended from. Good info here. Can you recommend a good source of cuttings for the yellow fruit varieties? Or do you perhaps sell? Ads I have seen so far look questionable - one guy selling "yellow dragon fruit seeds".

[@adamudada7847]

Thanks so much for your highly enlightening video. Never knew there are so many varieties. Please where can I purchase the Luvern and Townsend or any red or pink varieties. I am from the tropical part of Nigeria

[@David-wu7lz]

Thanks for the tour of your varieties. Just wondering--what are your favorite varieties?

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

You’re welcome David! My favorite varieties are 1. Sugar Dragon 2. Ecuador Palora 3. Voodoo Child 4. Trica 5. Frankie’s Red. It will be in that exact order. I have a sweet tooth when it comes to dragon fruits and these are the sweetest ones to me. They taste like berries and honey.

[@David-wu7lz]

Thanks-that’s interesting to know your preferences.

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

You’re very welcome!

[@TalktoSueAnn]

Hello Richard, I am thankful for the information. Please let me have some cuttings of the yellow if possible, or do you sell them?

[@meemeezong1827]

Do you pour concrete at the bottom of the pot?

Can you graft a slower grower on a vigorous rootstock like with tomatoes so the slower grower is more vigorous?

[@sinanhasko9762]

Hi Stoney Guerrero, thank you for the suggestion. I will definitely do a video regarding the top 10 dragon fruits that I love the most and recommend to grow!

[@lidiabelsuzarri1443]

Could you tell me how big are the pots please?

[@Ashley-ti6mp]

What fertilizer and how often at this stage in your video? When should stop the feeding? TIA

[@franciscoatengco7687]

1. Question for you, why the dragon fruit not plant in the ground, like other planting.

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

I plant them in pots because I want to be able to move them around when the weather conditions are bad.

[@sabinajeciel2229]

Hi Richard, Where do you order your dragon fruit plant? I'm interested in American Beauty and Vietnam White Giants?

[@salvadormartinez9390]

I love your channel Richard I starting to grow some dragon fruit plants but some of them are getting some like orange round dots do you have any advice or ideas of what’s causing that? I would really appreciate some help brother thank you.

[@asnahorchid]

Very good channel

[@sarahrecod3147]

Hi Richard, What are the command types do they typically sell at the stores. I have some new seedlings of a yellow and red variety but don't know what type are they. Do you by any chance to know.

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

Hi Sarah, the common types they sell at stores are mainly from Vietnam. The varieties are called Vietnamese White or Vietnamese Red.

[@sarahrecod3147]

@@GraftingDragonFruit they are not very sweet but more sweeter than the white. Thank you

[@TJenhilo]

where do you buy your little knife to cut the rotten branches?

[@thomasashe2681]

How many different yellow varieties are there?

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

Hard to say

[@ptrain9020]

I have a plant that I bought from a store that's labeled as American Beauty and it looks nothing like the American Beauty you showed on your video so I'm wondering if I have a plant that was mislabeled.

[@sampangrabin]

I love it

[@tanzimsani2228]

I want to collect all 14 variety drago fruit cutting.. how can I get this..???

[@PC-od9ml]

Fantastic videos, thanks for sharing! We're trying to grow ours and not having a lot of success but I'm going to try grafting like in your other videos to see if I can get some traction. Just a question about these plants, do you re-pot them into a bigger pots later? I have one of my plants in a pot (probably 50% bigger than those in this video) and wondering if I need to re-pot down the track especially to promote growth.

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

Thanks for watching! Dragon fruits can grow to full maturity in a 20gal-25gal pot. I have success with that size of pots. Maximum would be 4 cuttings to each pot so they have room to grow and establish roots. It sounds like it just need proper fertilization to give it a boost to promote more growth. Are you using any type of fertilizer for your Dragon fruits yet? How old are they? How many cuttings are in your pot? This will help me give better advice and tips once I know your Dragon fruits living situation. Hope to hear back!

[@macussa]

Gotta get me some cuttings. Over here in Portugal only have 3 varieties..

[@hank1030]

Hi Richard, this is mind-blowing, I have a question. How many fruit would you recommend to have per pot, for the best balance between the quantity and taste?

[@tronlegacy9133]

Hi Hank, it depends on your pot size. Usually 4 plants, one on each side of the support beam.

[@bjohnson2003]

Where do you suggest to get pelora cuttings?

[@off2kurebeach]

Awesome video but they all look exactly the same to me I can't tell which kind I have?

[@cobaloorozco9551]

Can I grow dragon fruit in colder climate?.zone 9b

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

They can't be grown if it gets colder than 40F for long periods of time.

[@cobaloorozco9551]

Ok thank you

[@elainluong76]

How could you straighten them?

[@elainluong76]

I mean at the bottom.

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

You straighten them by tying them to your post as they grow so it forms with the post which results them in being straight.

[@anniepeng]

Like your dragon fruits! My dragon fruits are just as big as an egg. Do you give out cuttings?

[@LH-wv8vx]

Wow, amazing collection! What size are these pots? Do you have to transplant when the dragon fruits grow bigger?

[@LH-wv8vx]

Thanks, I found the answers.

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

Hi Lin, my pots are all 20 gallon pots. They can grow forever in that pot their roots will be able to flourish for decades.

Hi Richard. Where are you located? I am growing dragon fruit plants from the seeds. Can I buy some cut from you? I am very interesting to learning from you. Thanks

[@mam564]

You have quite a collection! I'm curious, what your three favorites are - taste wise?

[@mam564]

[@juliotorres1539]

Richard, I need your help body, my dragon fruit is falling, they grow a little with the flower and then they fall, what can I do to prevent this?

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

Hi Julio, they might not be getting enough sun to support the plant. Give them also fertilizer to feed them to be strong to hold the flowers. Try these tips and they should improve significantly.

[@juliotorres1539]

Grafting Dragon Fruit Hi Richard Julio again, any fertilizer in mind? Thanks for replying back to me, I watch all your videos, great information!

[@jaychino1621]

Hi Richard, I just started growing dragon fruits. Do you know which varieties are compatible with each other if planted in same pot?

[@SuperPch]

Richard, where do you buy these 20 gallon pots?

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

Hi SuperPch, I buy these 20 gallon pots at my local Hydroponic Garden store. They tend to carry the bigger pots and if they don't they can always order it for you to purchase. Give them a visit and ask if they have them or if they know of a place you can get it. They should be able to give you the info.

[@florakhaw6256]

Richard - How long do these pots last?

[@feifei8528]

Hi Richard, I live in Palm Springs area, during summer the temperature is reaching 110F. Do you think red dragon fruits will be survived?

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

Hi Fei Fei, Dragon Fruit thrive best in the temperature of 65F-85F. Once they reach to 100F+ they will get badly sun burn and really damage the branches. What to do to prevent this is you’ll either need to put them in shade. Or you can buy a shading cloth that is 45-55% shade and place it right over your dragon fruits. They will survive the heat with the shade cloth over them.

Do you hane red dragon fruit for sale?

[@primelricafrente]

Hi Richard, why the height of the trellis was 4ft? why not 5ft or 6ft? thanks :)

[@tronlegacy9133]

On one of his videos he said it's because he's comfortable with working the tops without needing a ladder. You decide what is good for you but from experience if you want faster blooms you make the trellis shorter. Mine are really tall but I wanted them up high.

[@jocan55]

Are your black pots open to the ground or are they just growing inside the pots? Thanks, and thanks for making these videos!

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

They are just growing inside a 20gal pot and will have enough room for 4 cuttings to mature and produce fruits. Not cut or opened to the ground.

[@jocan55]

Cool, thanks!

Hi frand. You can plant sand Bangladesh

[@GraftingDragonFruit]

Hi shalaque abu, I'm unsure about bangladesh but I imagine it is possible if you can control heat over 100F+. That is when it gets tricking to plant dragon fruit. You'll just make have to make sure you have a shaded cloth over them to protect them from over heating.
