Description

The listing, Dragon Fruit Tree (purple haze) has ended.

Dragon fruit (SWEET PURPLE) mature cutting, 6-9"CUTTINGS (you get 2)

Purple Haze
Hylocereus undatus
Purple Haze is a large sweet fruit with relatively few seeds. The fruit weigh up to two pounds, and they have a pleasant grape/kiwi-like flavor. This variety is self pollinating, and like all of the other magenta fleshed fruit it will set fruit on its own. This variety does have commercial potential, and it can be eaten fresh, juiced, or used as a garnish.

Here are the steps on HOW to GROW the DARGON fruit Tree

Things that you need:

Your dragon fruit plant
large sized pots
potting soil (for cactus)
Something for supporting it's growth
Steps:

Prepare a pitaya plant and cut a vine. You can also find seeds at most garden places but growing the dragon tree using a VINE CUTTING is the easiest way to grow them if YOU are not living in the most tropical location .
Place the cut vine indoors where there is warm filtered sun for 1 DAY. You don’t have to add water, soil or hormones to the vine before growing.
Plant the pitaya vine cut in a normal, large sized pot. You can use up to 25 gallons size of pot but not more than that. Make sure to use good potting soil such as a mixture of sand, peat moss, compost and vermiculite. Plant the vine into the soil about 1 to 2 inchs deep.
You can water the pitaya plant once for every 3 days. Let the soil dry between these times. The vine will grow from the root by keeping the plant in filtered sunlight with a fairly warm temperature. Other vines will start to grow after the root has formed
You will have a fairly large plant with in 1 year. This grows FAST! Super easy to care for & yummy to eat!

It will do great there :-) I have some in the ground & in pots. I'm in South TX. Grows very fast! I use tomato cages in my pots for support.
