Paul's LaVerne Pink VS Matt's Dark Star / Two of my Favorite tasting DRAGON FRUIT / Tough Choice

[@damutoob]

Paul’s Laverne Pink looks great and the Darkstar is no slouch either! I’d love to get some cuttings when you have them available.

[@RAREDRAGONFRUIT]

Deal! They are excellent fruit in my opinion.

[@michaelarchambault217]

I wish you'd do your brix test in the actual center before taking a chunk out lol... would score even higher

[@RAREDRAGONFRUIT]

I like to eat it... It might be 1/10 to 5/10 higher, so you are correct.

[@technoraptor7778]

They look so good...bright colors!!

[@RAREDRAGONFRUIT]

Yes! Stunning varieties... Thanks for watching.

[@chadbradshaw4841]

Thanks

[@giovannyomar5643]

Que tal! Cómo se te hace el sabor? Semejante a delight? O?

[@RAREDRAGONFRUIT]

Yes, but I like Darkstar a bit more.

[@giovannyomar5643]

@@RAREDRAGONFRUIT Ok. Gracias. Y saludos

[@lemontea128]

I agree with u on DS. Mine was on its second season n the fruit it gave me this time around was great. It was like I was scooping grapes into my mouth. 🤣😋 Have you tried Laverne red?

[@RAREDRAGONFRUIT]

Yes, it's a great fruit too, but I think I like Darkstar a bit more.

I think that particular LaVerne Pink should be to be renamed to "Paul's Pink" or "Pink Paul", and I would gladly buy a cutting from you.

[@RAREDRAGONFRUIT]

Great Idea! Gray Martin, a commercial grower and hybridizer, recommended we call the LaVerne plants by the grower... So The standard is "Paul's LaVerne Pink" because there is now also a Spicy Exotic's LaVerne Pink, and Edna's LaVerne Pink, and more. This one is a great fruit. I'll have a few cuttings available in the spring. Thanks for watching.

They look delicious!🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

[@RAREDRAGONFRUIT]

They are both excellent varieties in my opinion.

[@jorgecervantes493]

Hi Paul, could you sell me some cuttings of your laverne pink, please let me know if you have some available, thanks. I live in orange county.

[@arnoldvaldevieso1711]

Can i buy a cuttings?

[@RAREDRAGONFRUIT]

I offer them in our Facebook group sometimes.

[@usmarma9467]

And all of my DF varieties hardly cross 13% brix score. 😒

[@RAREDRAGONFRUIT]

I bet they will improve next season. I used Dr. Earth Bud and Bloom fertilizer and liked the results very much.

[@percyriverosalzamora5131]

Friend both need cross pollination, to form fruit.

[@RAREDRAGONFRUIT]

Yes, that is correct.

[@SHARONSHORTOrchidsandGarden]

😋😋👍
