Hay sheldon i first learn about dragon fruit is when i went to A America, but not know we grow it here I just happen to start research the fruit when came up on this channel thank so much for the info
I know about the dragon fruit, but I did not know it’s grown in Jamaica 🇯🇲!!! I buy it frozen as well as fresh to use in smoothies. It’s a very expensive fruit here in the America 🇺🇸. I learn a lot from watching your channel 👍🏾
Yes I used to see these plant growing wild In the Island and some people use them like flowers plant, I think it come from the cactus family is when I went come to North American I see them in the supermarket, however I have never purchase or eaten it before you mostly seen them in the Asian supermarket 🇨🇦 if you want different fruits just visit the Asian market
Very interesting video. Sheldon was very knowledgeable, really did his research well. Very expensive here in NY but it has peeked my interest so I will try it 🙂
I'm in my 50s and I've been eating this fruit from I was a child we called it wild okra it's so tasty and nice especially in soup I have the plants here in my yard in st Ann it just grow wild but I never knew there is a market for it as I see it grows wild all over the place
Sheldon as a child I used to eat this fruit in stew. My mother liked it. I had a plant growing but I destroyed the tree it was on by burning. Sir sheldon where can I find you . I like your variety and I would like to taste it again. Thank for your interest. Love it.
I live in Burnt Ground Hanover. I fell in love with the plant that grew wild I'm my neighbour's yard. I thought it was an ephyphillum orchid - aka Queen of the Night Cactus. Little did I know that it was a dragon fruit. Now I want to grow the other varieties. Thanks for sharing
Big up yourself Mr. Shelldon I have been following you for about a month now trying to find ways of getting in touch with you about your dragon fruit I have traveled before now I’m not traveling I’ve tasted dragon fruits but I have never seen them in Jamaica until I saw the program with you I am interested in getting clippings are seeds to start my own you have inspired me deeply and starting my own backyard garden big up yourself sir
Very expensive here in Canada, but it's delicious and has lots of health benefits... Don't let the seeds scare you, and it's a good eat for pregnant women, diabetics, bones, hair, skin, etc... The yellow one is a bit tangy in flavor to me, and my favorite. Yes Dragon fruit pancake, with a little bit of passion fruit in the mix, just give it a try. I almost want to call it the miracle fruit to Moringa but Moringa has 18 out of 20 nutrition values. The cactus' family is full of health peeps!!!
I have never seen or known that dragonfruit grew in jamaica ....but thanks for highlighting it....this is one of mother natures beauty and Sheldon is very knowledgable about this fruit thanks for sharing❤👍🏾
I know realize that we were eating very young dragon fruit, NOT the flowers!! Thanks for the links below, I love learning and gaining new knowledge. Thanks Wellesley😁😁
I'm a Jamaican living in Texas, and I've being using this fruit for many years. It comes in many different colors. It's refreshing and mild in flavor. If I'm correct, I think it's from Asia. Thanks
I just heard the name Dragon fruit over the weekend in Nassau Bahamas. Looking at the video the plant looks like cactus. Amazing. I have never seen this plant or fruit before. Thank you Mr Wes.
Love dragon fruit, learnt about a few years ago now I'm growing my own the same ones as you Sheldon....I am now trying to find the other colors like the yellow and white .
I have the fruit on a daily basis, I live in the state of Georgia USA I buy the fruit at the farmers market they cost between 3/5 us $ you can cut them in halves or pegs and just peel back the skin very delicious
Absolutely fascinating, it is growing near me and did not realize it was dragon fruit as the locals call it bine spear and cook the flowers like okra. I will look at out for the fruit now👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
It grows wild in Trelawny and my grandma used to cook the stem just before it flower. She called it wild okra. We didn't eat the fruit. It was very tasty and slippery just as the Okra. It actually runs like a vine on other nearby trees. Just don't know why grandma didn't let us eat the fruit. I have eaten the fruit in England.
Hey Wesley...thanks for another gem. I recall seeing dragon-fruit in Jamaica waaaay back when I was a child visiting my grandparents. It wasn't until I traveled to Thailand that I tried it. I didn't like it at all 🤢. I don't like the texture and I found it rather lacking in any particular flavor. However it can stewed and made into a delicious jam. But as with all jams, a lot of sugar has to be added. The color is so vibrant...Dragon-fruit purple ❤️. Jamaica is indeed the capitol of the universe (as one of your interviewee once stated)...at least agriculturally. 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️❤️ Wesley mi like di likkle clip of you and fam watching World Championships. You should have done more. 🤣
Thank you very very much I remember eating it as a child there was a lot of it on my grandfather's property I am almost eighty years old thanks for the memory.
It is easily accessible here in the USA, colors are yellow pink,red it is strictly a tropical plant It of the cactus . Use in smooth zand eat as is Mainly cultivate in California, cannot thrive in cold climate No cold hardy type
I am a Jamaican living abroad I went to Hawaii where The dragon fruit was introduced to me I enjoyed that fruit but then I realize that the plan I have seen in Jamaica many times not certain if the variety is the same so I find this video very interesting also wishing I was home so I could find this gentleman and get some of the cuttings so I could plan some for myself I watch your program and they are very very interesting keep up the good work continue to Educate the people about the natural stuff that God has created for us God bless you as you continue your endeavors
Grew up eating this fruit, as a child we knew it as Bine Pear, grew wild in the bushes never knew the real benefits until I migrated to the US. The name Bine Pear came about because it relieves constipation
I'm from Manchester Jamaica and have seen these growing in the wild (white flesh) and did eat them if the birds didn't get to them first😄. I quite like the taste of them. I now buy the pink variety frozen in Canada and use them in smoothies.
Hi really love this video I have 2 plants here of the 2 varieties the pink purplish one and white. I would like to know if he hand pollinate them because I realise it's only occasionally I would get fruit but I get flowers often.
Yes, I had it in the uk, but only know about it, but was only told about the flowers can be cooked like okra. I asked on line about how to cooked the flowers and was advised that it's the the dragon fruit
To me the dragon fruit resemble the Chinese dragon that they use for their Chinese New Year celebration I wonder if that's the name come from. Love the video you never disappointed us thanks a lot for all your informative videos ❤️🙂
I've seen these in the US never knew they're grown in Jamaica.Most ppl usually say they're not flavorful so thats why I haven't tried it. After seeing this video I will give it a try,the color reminds me of starapple.
This fruit is good for gutt health. It takes no time for u to go the bathroom. I eat it almost everyday. The yellow skin one is very sweet. I use the one with red inside in lemon aid. The taste is real good. Love this fruit.
This fruit is native of Asia , very popular in Thailand, i seen it many years ago , there is also a yellow variety as well , my friend in Florida has a lot planted at his home, it’s a lovely cooling fruit .,,.. I love Dragon Fruit, it can be found in lots of Supermarket in the USA
@We Up Ok my dear dear hear you !! Almost everything we consume by mouth nowadays is man made and GMO, we not getting clean pure anything to eat hardly , from Meat , to Fruit, Vegetables, Grains whatever you can think of Bread ,Cheese , Fish you name it … God help us !! We can only bless it, pray it don’t kill us , and eat it , …. What else are we going to do? Die from hungry? One way or the other we’ll be dead !! Best thing to do is eat strictly Organic Natural Food, if best grow our own if we can , then we’ll be sure it’s not tampered with ….
@We Up there has been no gene editing done. Rather, these were created using cross pollination(selective breeding). This also occurs naturally in nature, where the plants with the strongest traits survive and produce seeds that are disbursed by animals that repeat the cycle. The only difference with the versions we are consuming is that Farmers and botanists observe and crossbreed the the plants that have traits they desire. Please do some research on Mendel's Law and we can discuss this further.
@We Up you are aware that farmers have been practicing selective breeding for hundreds of years before modern day technology used to genetically modify plants right? Selective breeding has been used to create known landraces unique to different localities eg corn, melon, "Marijuana" and mangoes (since you would like to know). I'm am by no means trying to defend the lab made garbage being passed off as food today. However, I, like many farmers before me, take the time to observe my crop and different characteristics in my plants then breed for the traits I'd like to see in my field. Just like a goat or cattle farmer selects the best bucks or yows to improve their herd.
The first time I saw the dragon fruit was in the British virgin islands but never get the opportunity to taste because I never have any 💰 money to buy it where in Jamaica can I get this fruit and the plant to purchase
