    Full Transcript: Dragon Fruit Cactus

    Hi, my name is Meredith and I have the Dragon Fruit Cactus in front of me.

    It is a cactus but it's unique because it is a climbing cactus so it's actually a vine and it's where those tasty bright pink fruits with the white center with all the little black seeds come from.

    So, you can actually grow your own in your yard. They are warm climate but if you live in a colder climate you can do that, as well, just grow them in a container and make sure to support them. They are pretty easy to grow.

    They like full sun and even moisture especially in the fruiting season, so you can have plenty of dragon fruits at home.

    Drop N Grow™

    Because this tree is grown in a burlap bag, its roots grow into the cloth, rather than circling around the pot. This brings moisture and nutrients into the tree, for faster, healthier growth and ease. Simply dig your hole, place the Drop 'N Grow™ bag in the center (burlap included), then use excess dirt to fill the hole. That's it!
