Dragon Fruit - Hylocereus undatus - Pitahaya

This is a Dragon Fruit (Hylocereus undatus), or pitahaya. It is a seedling from red-skinned and white-fleshed fruit and is 2-3 years old. The flavor of dragon fruit is somewhat tropical and sweet, but the look of the fruit almost more interesting. It's like a red scaly baseball, with white flesh and tiny kiwi-like seeds. This plant is a cactus, so it is drought-tolerant, although it will flower best with ample summer watering (1 inch/week). It's not cold-tolerant though, so bring it indoors if you have freezing temperatures.
