Ooohhh that's one of the dragonfruits I will have next year....im so excited....such an amazing variety.
I'm playing your videos on a loop non stop now for two days while I'm baking and cooking. How's that for a super fan?😊
Wow, that looks very delicious. Awesome, I can just imagine how sweet it can get in summer. Enjoy!!!
Tank you detailing dragon fruit trees.
One of the best.
Richard gets winter fruit.... I get winter rot! Looks really good Richard.
That looks so delicious and sweet !
That's a great variety of Dragon Fruit! 😎👍
I got some ohana express cuttings and grafted them successfully on mature rootstock using your videos, and now they are heading up the trellis in Miami! Excited to grow this new variety especially when Richard rates it 10/10!
Awesome job Scott!!!!! Way to go man, keep it up!!
Felicitaciones desde Panamá🇵🇦
Congratulations from Japan. I hope mine will have fruit this year in Hawaii.
Dang, so jealous of your collection. Cant wait for new videos.
and
can you do an update on the stem grown in water that you bought from a store
Congratulation from France !
Hello. Thank you for your wonderful videos, and your expert information. I bought an Ohana Express cutting almost a year ago, and it just have rooted in water.
I’ve just put it into soil. It has been very stubborn so far, but with luck, I’ll have fruit in two years? My gosh. Such a long time to wait, and I’m not a patient person!
I live in Florida. My other varieties are doing well, and I expect some fruit this summer.
Thanks again for all of your effort in helping the Dragon Fruit community.
It’s done ! I plant my first dragon fruit last week ! 😆
With a little bit personal setup, but it’s pretty nice 😉 hope that’s gone be alright for growing. I’m leaving in New Caledonia, climate is perfect. Can I send you some photos of my dragon fruit setup for your return please ? 😆
Really nice video
Congrats from Hawaii!
Danny
Thank you Danny!
Congrats from Malta
Thanks for all your posts on how to successfully grow dragon fruit. I also live in Orange County and am wondering where can I buy some dragon fruit cuttings in our area? I was fortunate to be given a couple of cuttings last spring and am new to growing this plant but I am interested in growing more, specifically the Ohana Express.
Thanks for all the good information about eating & growing Dragon Fruit & plants. I grew up on a farm & have been gardening most of my life, & have always enjoyed growing cactus and succulents. But, without a green-house, my climate wouldn’t be very conducive for growing Dragon Fruit. I’m just moving to Northern California (Redding area) and it’s still too cold in the winter, and probably too hot in the summer compared to Orange County or San Diego, but I’d like to give it a go, because my family and I love eating Dragon Fruit-but unless I can grow it, I’ll never be able to afford to buy enough to satisfy my family and I- and it sounds like the best flavors are missed out, if you’re having to buy it in the store, anyway.
I noticed your website doesn’t work yet, and this video (listed as one month old) referred to you “working on my website.“ For those of us not involved with social media, is there a way to contact you about purchasing Dragon Fruit starts (other than to wait for your website to come up)? THANKS!
They look amazing 👏🏼 😍 I heard you say these are your wifes favorite and now I'm soooo curious of how they taste... I would love to grow my own as well. I'm just now beginning to grow dragonfruit from cutting but I only have one small cutting. If you ever have any to give/sell a fellow gardener please reach out. Love watching you grow! 😊
Any updates on the website? Excited for it!
Thank you so much for sharing your amazing experience! You got me hooked on dragon fruits. I am visiting Orange County in June, from Ohio. Can you suggest DF orchards to visit while I am there. Perhaps they or you can sell me few branches?
I think it did very well for a winter fruit! Might be a good variety to help have dragon fruit throughout the year?
Hi Richard.....first of all let me say how glad I am to have found you on YOU TUBE . Really enjoy your videos. So much so that I have interest in growing my own dragon fruit ... I have 1 cutting and am wondering if you sell any cutting or seed . Please let me know.
Such an amazing fruit! What about your own hybrids, how are they going?
Hey, Richard! I had a question about my dragonfruit. Two small branches got broken off my Lisa in our move. I've rooted them but just realized that all of the thorns have been broken off of both pieces. Will they ever send out branches of their own or are they only good for rootstock now?
Hi Richard! Some days ago I started to notice some buds in my dragon fruit growing weirdly, I did some researches on the internet and found out that buds becomes branches when the weather becomes not good to make the plant produce flowers. Have you ever experienced this with your plants? Maybe its a good idea for a new video...
Great videos. I've recently started growing dragon fruits. I have a plant I can't identify. Is there a way to identify the type by the vines?
Do you have any video on trimming? Mine over grown it broke the post
Hey do think I could mix cacti mix soil with sand for dragon fruit?
Ever since I got my hands on my first dragon fruit my mom grew ive been obsessed with it. Since then I have been researching everything having to do with dragon fruit. I even got my hands on 3 kinds of dragon fruit. But I don't know how to get more dragon fruit to add to my collection. Do you guys know where I can get more or how to identify certain types.
Hi Richard, how are you deciding a fruit is ripe and pick it? Cheers
Awesome videos. I do have one questions I got a rooted plant July of last year and have it inside. Its about 2' tall now. My question would be is it ok Inside or should I move it outside in the spring. I live in Southern New Mexico but, can get cold. We just got snow this morning? Thank you
Hi Richard, I live in a city where the temperature rises above 40 degrees in summer, can I set up a dragon fruit greenhouse with these conditions? Block direct sunlight with shading fabric
Thật tuyệt vời.
Can u tell which is better ohana express or desert king??
Just got my hands are 4 mature cuttings. 🙌
Huge fan!! How can we get ahold of some of your cuttings??
On Oahu two weeks back they only had the very flavorless red varities for some reason no yellow honey type. like at Costco in California
What are your top five best tasting red/pink flesh varieties??
is there a way to buy seeds from some of varieties of dragon fruit trees you have?
Are ohana express flowers pinkish?
You get so many fruits. Do you sell them?
What are the most popular varieties?
Hey If you ever need soil or anything from a hydroponic store, hit me up. I own 3 of them and will give you everything at cost! Thanks for all the great info on dragon fruit.
I am waiting for my ohana Express cuttings thanks to mr mufeez who make it happen
I have a question, I recently got into dragon fruits and decided to buy some cuttings, American Beauty and Purple Haze, but then I read that these 2 verities can't cross pollenate, is that true?
Quick question and I hope someone can answer it. I have some huge palora plants that I’ve grown from seed and are nearly 2 yrs old. They started to bloom some buds about a month ago and just last night a flower has opened!!🥰👍🏼🤙🏼🙏🏼 Inly thing is that I thought dragonfruit doesn’t bloom until summer into fall? Isn’t it a bit early? I mean, no complaints 🤣 but it just kinda shocked me to see it this early. Or it doesn’t matter? I’m in zone 12b Hawaii. Maybe that’s why? Warm all year round.
What's a good place online to buy different types of dragon fruit cuts
Dragonfruit lovers, after consuming dragonfruits, can the seeds be digested? I found speckles or seeds like after the restroom 2 business 😞
If it's snows does the dragon fruit plant die
Hi. Awesome content. Really appreciate it. How can I buy cuttings from you. I am in Arizona
Where do you buy your seeds from? Having a hard time finding seeds to purchase because most are simply labeled as "red" or "white" rather than variety and I wanna grow 17 varieties
Hello brother .....I plant my dragon fruit last year but I think it does not even grow ....what shall i do....from india
I wonder what is he going to do for the 100k special
Sir, greetings from India. Inspired by video I tried grafting in dragon fruit and i succeed last year. However, I wonder is there any way of getting seeds or cutting of varieties if I pay for the courrier?
Also I want to try asunta and tricia in India.
Do you possibly sell your cuttings or know of a nursery you would recommend?
When are you going to have the Dragonfruit Taste test
Was wondering: As you are harvesting the fruit to consume after refrigerating, why not simply remove the fruit by rotating it rather than cutting it, minimizing any damage to the plant?
I harvest DF by flipping side to side to minimize damage.
Do you sell seeds or cuttings?
Where can we buy O’Hara express?
Hello Richard! Do you sell cuttings?
Dragon fruit taste the best when you chill it first taste the pulp of Miracle Fruit and then eat dragon fruit 😂
Is Ohana Express the same as Hawaiian Orange?
Can you please show how to create new variety by cross pollination
How can I buy sour patch kids cuttings?
Are you selling cutting?
Hola amigo, una consulta por favor, cómo es el esqueje de un purpusii. Es recto o torcido. Excelente video amigo saludos cordiales para usted.
Mucho gracias amigo!
Hay esquejes rectos, torcidos o curvos, depende de la planta
@@jr4it06 hola amigo saludos, compre una planta era torcido con manchas cenizo grueso el vendedor me dijo variedad purpusii. Vi un vídeo de Lupe piña de México y un vídeo de España de un purpusii era delgada recto. Consulte a vendedores en Perú al final salí más confundido, tienes tres nombre , Godzilla, Pink, purpusii. Saludos amigo.
richard come down trinidad and tobago and you can find dragon fruit in the wild growing on trees you and try it and bring a piece to calfornia in trinidad we does call it harjoe it s white flesh and it cracks when it ripe and tobago have a local variety call tobago pink
Thank you for the tips! If I ever travel down that area I’ll know who to contact to show me around! 😌🤙🏼
@@GraftingDragonFruit i cant show sorry you but you can go down mougra forest in trinidad to find the local variety and also can you compare it with hana and it taste realy good
Great video, what size pots are you using?
20 gallon pots!
@@GraftingDragonFruit Thanks, I just saw it in one one your other videos. How can I tell if the the variety I have is self fertile?
Yes if you have others cross pollinate to be sure but you can always go back to try a self pollinate test to see off it works
Sir one news circulate
Dragen fruit caring corona virus
is it correct
From India ....I have dragen fruit land
Sir please explain about how to stimulate dragon plant by Led bulb to produce off season dragon fruit production....
Hi, I have no experience with stimulating dragon fruits with LED bulb. I normally grow them outdoors and let nature takes its course. 😁
15-20 days of light during a whole night!!!
Richard should I grow my dragon fruit with treated or untreated wood
Personally I would use untreared. Else use burlap...
@@howtogrowdragonfruitplant7849 thanks
you are welcome !
Richard any chance I could talk you into helping me start my orchard ? I would love to get cuttings with known good linage and info. I live in eastern Pa and have a indoor green house and want to see if I can start a orchard. Also have a out door green house kit coming to help expand our flowing season here. I would love to get 8-12” cuttings which I can root, and place into 3-5gal Pots and final trans plant this March into 20gal trellis pots. I know it’s not a cheap hobby, so I would gladly pay you. Thanks for any help
I don't have any cuttings available at the moment. Try asking in my FB group. There's a lot of sellers
I want to order some cuttings I’m in the Midwest and where do I buy that shears?
Hi there, if you’re in the USA I’m able to help with cuttings. For the Sheers, there’s a link in my description for you to get the exact one I use in this video!
@@GraftingDragonFruit hey Richard your hair is ALWAYS sharp! Whoever does your hair tip them generously
@@GraftingDragonFruit yes I am , would you be able to sell me a cutting in the spring I like that it’s self pollinating .I’m in the Midwest Kansas City .
neden video çekmiyorsunuz why do you dont video
Hey one question when its a good time to transplant from a small pot to a 20 gallon its a big plant 3 years old I never had fruit on this one i live on Palm Springs California thanks
You can transplant them as soon as they start to pop roots! They are very hardy and can take a transplant without shock and settle in their new home fairly quick! Giving it more root space to grow and building a trellis will help you get them to start producing fruit.
Can I buy O'Hara express cutting from you?
When my website launches, I'll be selling what I have available. Very limited quantities
i hope you save some seed from the cross
It would help you out tremendously if you were to do private tastings with a note pad, pencil, and loads of adjectives. I find you have used the same explanations for every tasting.
I know you know who this Hawaiian is…… haha!! #HotShoyu lol 😂
Regarding my comment below, if meeting is inconvenient or uncomfortable for you (I’m a safe old woman, but I know trust comes hard these days), I would be happy receiving your cuttings by mail.
“OHANA” in Hawaiian means “FAMILY”
Hi Richard. I'm from South Africa. Unfortunately, we are not as lucky as you guys where dragon fruit plants are sold in plant nurseries, so most of my plants are grafted plants. Vietnamese White root stock and seedlings of fruits I get or buy from friends as the scions. I watched a video of you 8 months ago explaining the L-graft. I recently tried the same with seedlings grafted on to old-growth Vietnamese White root stock. It worked. I'll send you photos if you can send me a whatsapp acount. I am not on FB or Instagram. Maybe you can make a video on TH-cam. Love your channel Kind regards Jacques
