Dragon Fruit Cactus – Hylocereus undatus 🌵🐉

The Dragon Fruit Cactus is a tropical, climbing cactus known for its dramatic night-blooming flowers and the potential to produce bright pink, spiky fruits with sweet, edible flesh. With its three-sided, fleshy stems and exotic flair, it's perfect for greenhouse growing, sunny patios, or adventurous indoor gardeners.

Key Features:

✔ Unique, triangular climbing stems with small spines
✔ Can produce large, fragrant white flowers – blooms at night
✔ Grows into a large, climbing cactus with support
✔ Potential to bear dragon fruit in warm, bright conditions
✔ Ideal for large pots, greenhouses, or warm conservatories

Care Instructions:

• Light: Needs full sun or very bright light indoors

• Watering: Water when the top few inches of soil are dry – reduce in winter

• Soil: Use a well-draining cactus or succulent mix

• Feeding: Feed monthly in spring/summer with a high-potash fertiliser

• Support: Train up a trellis or pole to support climbing stems

• Temperature: Prefers warmth – protect from cold below 10°C

• Fruit: Fruiting requires warm conditions, maturity, and sometimes cross-pollination

🌿 Tip: While fruiting indoors is rare without strong light and warmth, the cactus itself is a beautiful and unusual foliage plant!
