Scott, just to clarify, I'm not saying your plant is mislabeled. I helped Edgar Valdivia pollinate many varieties of pitaya one night and just recall what he taught me at the time. Maybe there are other varieties with that characteristic. Did you have another source for pollen when you pollinated your flower or did you use it's own pollen? Sometimes pollen from another source is needed, I've read, while sometimes it isn't. Again, good luck!
