Re: Dragon Fruit
Here is a fruit of Hylocereus undatus cultivar 'Paul Thomson'. In my climate, it is about 50-60 days from flower to ripe fruit. The flavor is not as fruity or as sweet as H. guatemalensis. Overall I would rate it very good (4 out of 5), and for a white dragon fruit it is one of the best.

Re: Dragon Fruit
Dean, nice setup you've got there. Is that a solarium?

Re: Dragon Fruit
This is my first time growing a dragon fruit plant, and I got a Roger Meyer cutting from Bob. I see from your pic Dean...they grow roots everywhere!
My cutting is starting to do the same... : ) |

Re: Dragon Fruit
Roger Meyer is perhaps best known for his work with Kiwis. He is a frequent speaker at agricultural conferences on the west coast. He and his wife Shirley also sell their wide collection of fruiting plants at CRFG and other horticultural fairs.
Here's a random picture of Roger:

Re: Dragon Fruit
Roger also has one of, if no the largest, selection of jujube varieties. I've got six from him so far. I'll probably buy his jujube book the next time I see him.
