Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane – the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let’s get into it! Cheers, Mark ๐

Hi ๐
I love Dragon fruit
How long to take fruit, Iโm very new to grow tropical fruit ๐
.
Great video. Great tips to freeze the pollen and water more to get more fruit.
Are the plants safe for children to put them on balcony? How likely is it for children to be hurt by the thorns?
Thanks for the tips

So when you grow them from a stem how long would it take to gave fruit
I love Dragon-Fruit!๐
๐ Thanks for sharing!
Those fruit are 8 dollar U.S. where I live in North carolina. I tried one they had marked down. I don’t think I could grow it in my climate either.
That was great. Good job. Answered all of my questions.
We put a dragonfruit in our worm bin after trying it for the first time and now I have several of them growing. Looking forward to trying to grow them
You should try grafting seedlings Mark !
How can i can get some cuttings to malta bro?? I wish to have this plant
Thanks for another great video mark. Just picked up my first dragon fruit tree from Facebook mafket place for free. Got a project ahead of me this weekend setting it up. Lucky I can always rely on you for some great info.

I messed up and bought a variety which is not self fertile (Edgarโs Baby). I still love to grow it but itโs so easy to propagate that now I have like 8 aggressively large potted cacti which will never fruit. Whoops.
The yellow dragon fruits are most expensive
Super beautiful ๐ฅฐ๐คฉ๐๐๐นโค๏ธ๐๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
My question is about heat. I live in Las Vegas, NV USA. Weโre in the Mojave Desert where it can easily hit 120 degrees F in the summer and go below freezing a few nights during the winter. Not much grows here. I currently have five dragonfruit plants in the house, and they love it, but at some point theyโll get too big and need to go outside. Will they survive? Should I plant them where they get less direct sun to prevent them from burning? I really want these plants to do well, but Iโm afraid for them. Help!

Thanks for the good tips, i harvested for the second year pitaya in Tahiti
Hello sir I am from India I want Yellow dragon fruit plants may you send some mature cutting plants please
mate i had no clue dragon fruit was a cactus ๐
Nice
ive got them fully mature in canada ๐
Apparently tipping the branches is the go to encourage fruiting, try cutting 1-2 inches off the end of the branches on a few before it is due to flower and see if that helps production.
Hi Mark. The colourful abino decorative cactus have a graft plant that is very similar to a dragon fruit plant. I have established one and it is getting large and attaching itself to my balcony. It has never flowered. I am just wondering if it is worth keeping or is it now just a weird weed. It is not pretty.
This has been so interesting. Iโve always wanted to try a dragon fruit, but Iโve never seen one. It would be great to grow one, but I live in the U.K. so not sure how easy it would be.
I had a dragon fruit once and found it to be bland almost…is that thier taste or was it a unripe fruit
Good clear presentation. Manchester uk not sunny enough ๐๐๐๐
I agree with you observation of the plant developing fruit when it hangs over a bit more or else it will continue to grow taller.
I had a dragon fruit in a large pot which I put in a place where it got at least 6 hours of sunlight, and yet it got scorched/burnt although I made sure the soil always had enough moisture balance. I had to move it to a shade because some of the stalks started to turn yellow. What was happening? Can you explain, please? Thank you in advance.
Your Dragon trees had lots of fruits ๐คฉ๐
