Description: The Dragon The dragon is an auspicious mystical creature in the Chinese culture and if there is a fruit named after it, we want to find out if it has some sort of amazing prowess. Origins The Red Dragon Fruit is also known as Pink Pitaya or Strawberry Pear. It is a tropical fruit that is bright red on the outside with green spiky leaves flaring up around it like flames and its flesh has an interesting texture that is sweet and peppered with black seeds. Many may recognise the fruit but few know that it actually grows on a climbing cactus called hylocereus or some may know it with a much prettier name, the Honolulu Queen. This cactus has large, white flowers that open only at night, famously known as the 'Lady of the Night' or 'Moonflowers'. Native to southern Mexico and North America, it was the French who brought the fruit over to Southeast Asia in the early 19th century.
