3 RED + 3 PURPLE + 9 inch CUTTINGS DRAGON FRUIT TREE PLANT (PITAHAYA)

I received 3 red and 3 purple dragonfruit cuttings as described.I stuck each cutting by itself in small individual pots, left them inside under a timed UV light, and watered very sparingly (maybe once every 7-10 days). Within a month I could tell all 6 had taken root.I then built two homemade trellis with square tops out of some scrap wood and stuck them in large pots, and planted the dragonfruit cacti tightly around the center of pole of the trellis (one pot for the purple DF, the other for red DF), and then placed the pots in a shady area of the porch to avoid sunburn shock from their newfound home in the bright Texas sun.In no time I was going out every few days to readjust plant tape and guide multiple little snaking cacti towards the crown of the trellis. After two weeks in the shade adjusting to the Texas summer, I moved them to a sunnier spot with my other potted plants and they loved it.For whatever reason, my reds grew very well and are well over 6 feet long in some places, growing fat on top of their trellis crown and reaching out another foot out past it. The purple has been slow and steady and only now is reaching the crown, but is healthy.No blooms yet, but that's to be expected as it's only been 6 months! Frankly I couldn't be more pleased with these plants.Some quick tips/observations:-the biggest threats will be over-watering and cold temperatures, as with all cacti. We had a surprise cold front last week after a week of slow rain, and I had to move the DF back inside to undergo treatment for root rot and fungi. At least I caught it early so they should be fine. I may need to re-pot them with a soil mixture that drains better.-in an attempt to make it easier to move inside/outside, I made a miniaturized version of the homemade trellis that is often found online. Instead of large 4x4 or 2x4 boards, I used little 2x2's and wooden posts that I had leftover from making chicken roosts. But now that the plants are growing so well, I realize the trellis I made is way too small and janky, and I am going to have to come up with a new solution next year if I want to keep the cacti growing and healthy.

The cuttings are taken from a very large established tree so they are very healthy. Great buy!

Beautiful and arrived in good health and really nice sized.

Happy with the cuttings. All cuttings are growing strong and healthy.

Cuttings came on time as indicated, however two of the cuttings came in dried out. The other cuttings look good for now but will only tell in time after I planted them. Will update at a later time, hopefully they grow well.

I love Dragon plant cuts- red and purple! It's so thick, I hope that roots grow fast.Thank you so much! 100 times thank you!

Rip off! I get it’s not going to look like pic of sellers. They said 9 inch cutting’s one on left is 1 inch one on right is 3 inch. Not marked purple or red I don’t recamend.

I had been anxiously awaiting my first dragonfruit order and was so excited when I received the package today. My excitement soon turned to un-excitement when I opened it and took inventory of what I received. The 3 reds were decent sized and in good shape. They were plump and looked healthy. The 3 purples, on the other hand, were all shriveled up and dehydrated. What a disappointment! I potted all of them and hope that some of them will survive!
