Hi, folks! There are Dragon Fruit vines all over St. Croix, my little island, but they must be the kind that need cross pollination because fruit is rare. I have a huge tangle of vines that grew up a Christmas palm, then across to an orange tree, which died, and the whole mess fell over into a heap a couple of months ago. Cut up, the vines would fill two pick up trucks. There was one little fruit once, white inside, with nice crunchy seeds, but zero flavor. Someone told me to squeeze lemon on it and add sugar. No thanks.

Gordon, not price fix, just expensive shipping?

I have seedlings someone gave me, supposed to be one pink fleshed, and one purple fleshed.

Oh, and my big vine's flowers are not fragrant at all.
