Dragon Fruit

5" Pot Size

Experience Level: Low-Medium

A more unique fruit which you can find at your local grocery store. It gets its name from its fruit which resembles the shape of a dragon's fiery breath. It looks very similar to a cacti however its needles are soft and not prickly. It enjoys 6-8 hours of sunlight per day so place it in a south facing window if possible. Plants may start to produce fruit in anywhere from 1-5 years depending on how long it takes them to mature. They require watering only 1-2 times per week and don't enjoy sitting in water. When you are starting off the best size of pot would be one that is 10-12 inches deep and around 5 gallons.
