Do all Dragon fruit need pollination to fruit. I thought I saw where you dont need to for some .
Is that true?
looking to grow Dragon Fruit do they all need Pollination
GardenersCorner, I should be able to answer that question. I am growing Dragon Fruit succesfully (two years now). One of my plants came to me discribed as being self pollinating. But I didn't give it a chanch to self pollinate. I hand pollinated it along with my other two plants for three nights in a row last summer. How all three plants knew to bloom at the same time still amazes me.
So I guess my answer would be, I have been told there are some self pollinating varieties, although the usual belief is that they all need help and another plant to cross pollinate with.
So far I only have the white variety. Don
Thank you Don.
If you have any other helpful hints or tips on how to best grow these
please let me know
I'm trying to get my hands on one and dont know much about growing the plant.
Much appreciated ,
Sylvia
There is also a dedicated yahoo group for pitaya/dragon fruit. I get regular email from them, even though I do not (yet) grow that fruit.
