Default Re: Dragonfruit.

So, I finally ate my first Dragon Fruit this week. They were "on sale" (ie actually available in Nebraska) for $6.99 each.

This was a hefty fruit, about a pound and a half with white flesh inside. The flavor was. . . vague. Kind of like superdense watermelon texture with mini crunchy seeds and a taste like kiwi and pear, but less sweet. I have no way of knowing if I had a "ripe" specimen, but the experience was pleasurable.

I now have several dozen seeds from said fruit. Is there anything special I need to do to get them to sprout?
