Love your explanations for everything! We have decided to try & grow our own dragon fruit based on your earlier videos.

Wow! Amazing new variety! Go Edgar! Big thanks to Richard for sharing! Love your channel! Always cool to hear about new hybrids! These Asunta 5"s look so good together!

Nice video Richard! Good of you to share the latest findings as it keeps the progression going....

I'm using your dragon fruit guide videos and it's working like a charm 👍🏽👍🏽

My wife and I have been growing Dragon Fruit for the last 7 years, the red and white type. I am glad that more videos such as your have been coming out with more insight on these wonderful plant. Until I saw your video we didn't even know there was a grading system for dragon fruit.

Great dragon egg collection, so awesome.

Amazing thank you for making this video, this is amazing, now I want to grow it 🤩, but I'm running out of room 🤪

I was fortunate enough to get a Cutting from Diego Melendez last year. I should have Fruit next year 2023. Thanks Diego

Who are you???

A year back whenever I came across your videos I just tried to skip to something else, because your accent wasn't so clear to me nor was the fruit so pleasant. But as I slowly got interested in Dragon fruits owing to one Adamic variant that bears hardly 100~125 gram fruits in my rooftop garden my interest in you began awakening and now your same voice appears so melodious as if someone's pouring pure musical honey into the ears. It's nice to Learn about different varieties and their properties and a lot about dragons from your videos❤. My fascination for mangoes has been usurped by dragons. Thank you Richards for bringing in the phenomenal change.

Hey Richard that's looking amazing. But I want to know that asunta 5 was paco ond right?

Hi Richard. Thank you greatly for all your free content! I do have a quick question as a noob grower. I recently purchased a yellow DF cutting online, and when it arrived it was about 70cm long and a little dehydrated. I separated into 3 cuttings, left to callus for 4 days and placed in 1 inch of water. After 1 day the submerged part of the cuttings are gooey (like aloe). Is this normal, or did the cuttings not callus enough? If so, should I remove from the water and leave to dry out again? I can't seem to find any information on this. Thanks again!

Hey Richard, great to know about variety of fruits, can u kindly how can i get cuttings of different varieties

I bought '6' dragon fruit from work.. i have since then learned they are NOID's but thats ok I will have fun growing them.. also I have collected sections that broke off and planted them to see if they will root and a co-worker has given me 3 clippings from an ancient DF that is in her yard, she has no idea what kind it is and it has never bloomed.. looking forward to this discovery.

Any luck growing yellow dragon fruit from fresh seed? I've had no luck so far. FYI, about 10 years ago I bought a small bag of dehydrated red dragon fruit from Trader Joe's and successfully grew multiple red dragon fruit plants from the seeds I removed from the dried fruit. The plants that grew from those seeds produced red fruit which I thought was very good. Before rejecting my claim that plants can be grown from seed, many of my backyard fruit trees were grown from seed, including my 35-year-old mango tree which my wife & I think produces the best mangos.

He has a great series on growing them from cuttings to fruit, but here’s a summary: fox farms ocean forest soil, flora nova grow fertilizer once every other water cycle after they’ve been in the pot for several weeks (3-4), if you use an organic fertilizer like Dr. Earth, once every other week after the same several week period of being in the pot.

Agreed, I think this plant was mis labeled and is actually Albino Ocamponis. Just bought this variety from Etsy and the pictures look identical. Also it's very unlikely that a seedling in the Asunta lineage would come out with yellow skin and white flesh because the Asunta parents have colored flesh!

As a CV grower, I am only really experienced in Vietnam White. I have an Ecuador Palora graft, Sugar Dragon, and hope to have Tricia. Only the Vietnam White has been around outside with some protection in the winter. The rest will be experiencing their first outdoors winters this year. The big thing is to find varieties known to tolerate the temperature extremes of our weather. This is why I chose Sugar Dragon and Tricia, because SD has great tolerance that even allows it to grow in the Midwest. Tricia has that film that protects it. VW is known to be tolerant, and Ecuador Palora can grow right back once established. You still may need to use sun protective cloths like burlap in the summer, and plastic wrap/Christmas lights in the winter.
