Dragon Fruit Hylocereus Undatus HALLEY'S COMET Red Flesh ROOTED PLANT 4-7 inches

Description: DRAGON FRUIT Hylocereus Undatus "HALLEY'S COMET" Red Flesh 1 ROOTED PLANT 4-7 inches FULL SUN - CLIMBING - YEAR-ROUND - HARDY TO 32F "Halley's Comet" is considered by many to be the finest of all Dragon Fruit varieties for the home gardener. Its incredible large, slightly rounded fruit typically weighs in at 1.5 to 2 lbs. For gastromonic delight, eat, chilled and cut in half so the flesh may be spooned out. The deliciously sweet fruit is low in calories, but high in lycopene, a strong antioxidant. Native to the Americas, Dragon fruit, also know as Pitaya or Pitahaya, is the fruit of the Hylocereus climbing cactus. The common name comes from the short green fins that grow on the bright, pinkish-red skin and are reminiscent of flying scales of a dragon. CARE INFORMATION: Plant in a well draining soil with a support stake or trellis and water when dry. Protect from hard freezes. The dragon fruit cactus blooms several times each year with huge fragrant blooms. Halley's Comet is SELF-POLLINATING, but since dragon fruit only flowers at night, it is usually pollinated by nocturnal creatures like moths and bats. A simple hand-pollinating with an artist's brush can ensure an even better fruit set. CLICK HERE FOR MORE EXOTIC PLANTS
