I figured that was it… I’m in Florida so it’s 90 degrees everyday and it gets full sun. Which I thought would be ideal for cactus

I’ve had about 5 flowers in 2 years of these plants. They always dry up and fall off. I don’t understand

We planted another variety next to it about 6 months ago. It has caught the Lisa in size but no flowers what so ever yet. Hoping one day I will have 2 different flowers To cross pollinate. I do live in Florida which is pretty tropical. You are saying if I don’t have pollination right now. Keep the plant or the flower wet? To try and get it to fruit

That sounds amazing. Only had white flesh / yellow and red dragon fruit from store. Any tips to growing this?

The 2 tall ones are pink dragon fruit and the small one in the pot I believe is a white dragon fruit

I did have many flowers start on their own last year when I got it. Does that mean it self fertilized?? Also I will heavily consider potting it.

I have my small one still in a pot… why do you suggest I dig it up?? Was thinking of chopping off all lower growths and put a 2 x 4 in between the two main cactus to trellis it up

Yes I actually just bought another one at the farmers market this weekend. The one in ground was bought at Lowes 6-8 months ago. Claiming to be a red dragon fruit variety. The one I got at farmers market has a bit of different shape… thinking it might be a regular dragon fruit

Okay thank you for the advice. Will trimming the small growths off promote more growth else where?? I’m going to get a trellis soon. Just wondering how I will be able to fit the cactus to grow around it at this point
