How To Grow Dragonfruit Part 5: HARVEST and End of Season Care

In the final video on how to grow dragon fruit from cuttings, we harvest my very first dragon fruit in just 14 months from planting stem cuttings! That is extremely fast dragon fruit growing if I do say so myself. I'm very pleased with how this journey has gone, and if you have any questions please feel free to drop a comment.

Where do you get dragonfruit seeds/ plants!

You'd love to see my mother in law's wall of dragonfruit. And I do mean WALL. She used the railing at the top of the wall to trellis it. So she has a good 20ft or more of thick dragonfruit plants, but it's only a couple of plants, but they are long and dense. I believe we bought the house with an old dragonfruit plant. Like 12 years old or older. It's huge!

My neighbor gave me some dragon fruit cutting today. So I am truly enjoying this whole series! Thank you!!

Loved this series. A little tip for you, dehydrate your extra dragon fruit. The flavor intensifies and is very satisfying. It also gives you fruit out of season. :)

Kevin, i first got my dragonfruit start about 1 1/2 years ago, and your dragonfruit videos have been a valuable resource. Thank you for the good information, and I’m happy to report that I have my first 2 dragonfruit flowers growing now! Keep up the good work and I look forward to more great content!

Thanks for going this far with the series. I realize that the numbers dropped, but it's a huge help to those of us who are genuinely interested.

I bought a yellow dragon fruit from and asian store and started seed with my aero garden lights. I have 1 inch dragon fruits I just transplanted. I can't wait for more growth. Loving this fruit.

Thanks so much for your videos. I’m in Perth Western Australia and after seeing a dragon fruit my friend just grew I have just watched all your videos. Now completely inspired to grow my own. Will help keep me entertained whilst we self isolate here in Australia due to the Corona Virus. Cheers from Australia.

Omg that ‘bland kiwi’ looked so delicious and amazing. Even though I was imagining the bland, supermarket taste when you were cutting in, I was still drooling!

Curious what happened to your friends dragon fruit plant? Was hoping to see where he is at in the progress.

i love dragon fruit, and if you really want a treat try the yellow dragonfruit. it's 100 times sweeter!
