Description: 25++ Yellow Dragon Fruit Seeds (Hylocereus Undatus Cactus) Pitaya, Pitahaya Seeds Selenicereus undatus, the white-fleshed pitahaya, is a species of Cactaceae and is the most cultivated species in the genus. It is used both as an ornamental vine and as a fruit crop with fragrant white and yellow blooms, this perfectly low-maintenance houseplant is a hardy cactus and comes with a great will to grow (and is soft to the touch). As its stems continue to sprawl outward, you may want to re pot the dragon fruit to see its full potential. Hylocereus undatus needs a semi-shade exposure; in full sun the stems turn brown. Temperatures should not be less than 11 ÂșC. The soil can be a mixture of 2/3 of peat or leaf mulch and 1/3 of coarse siliceous sand. Water abundantly in spring and summer until flowering ends.Although dragon fruit plants enjoy warm weather and are often planted in full sunlight, too much intense sun in dry or especially hot regions can cause stem damage. If temperatures in your area are frequently near 100 degrees Fahrenheit, it's best to plant your cactus in a spot that boasts partial shade Dragon fruit is easy to grow in the garden or in a large pot. It's a climbing cactus, so it requires a frame or trellis for it to grow up and trail over, but once that is in place, it's relatively easy-going.Since the Dragon Fruit is a tropical succulent, it should be watered only when the soil is nearly dry. Overwatering is a surefire way to kill a cactus! You can check the moisture of the soil by putting your finger or a yard stick into the soil about 3 inches down.

Many take several weeks, months, and some even up towards a year depending on dormancy, region, season etc. It is important that the buyer understands that seeds are perishable products and seed germination can be adversely affected by such factors as mold/fungus, bugs, temperature, moisture content, light intensity, dormancy, care, contamination of planting media among many other reasons. Germination recommendations are sent with each order and the buyer is free to research and use their own methods. Floating seeds do not always indicate that the seed is not viable. Many times, it is a misconception because the seed does not have the density to sink in water. Accordingly, The Plant Attraction does not guarantee seeds to perform properly regardless of conditions or buyer's methods or soil/water/lighting.
