Hi Richard! You have been my inspiration! Thank you for all your passion, experience and attention to detail. I've been watching your videos for a long time and I have finally made my trellis and have a few dragon fruit plants growing. What are a few dragon fruit plants that are my must haves according to your opinion? How about naming a few that produce fruit without pollination and a few that do. Really appreciate any advice! I want to collect several varieties!

@Dragon Fruit Addict In my video I stated that this variety was not created by me. It was a variety that was suppose to be American Beauty. I contacted the grower but he doesn't remember that he even gave me an AB and even got rid of that plant because he wanted space. As I tried the fruit I noticed it wasn't the same flavor profile as AB. Its Self-fertile but needs help with hand-pollinating. To not confuse myself in my own garden, I ended up renaming it to what it most resembles and taste like to me. That's how Sour Patch Watermelon came about.
