My Vietnamese Jaina bloomed mid October! It was my 1st bloom. I have 6 known varieties and 2 NOID. I'm so addicted now!!
I planted dragon fruit cutting last year, i got my first and only one fruit this year. it was so tasty 😋
Good evening CaliKim. What can I say? These videos just keep getting better and better – superb production values and superlative content. Everything looks so fresh and lovely. But of course that's to be expected from a talented gardener such as you. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful Tuesday. 🌹🌼🌻
Wow, Hawaii allows us to take a branch home? Excellent! I am rooting some dragon fruit branches too, great timing!
Hi kim I read that dragon fruit is mild and sweet and it makes your skin look younger
This is great now I can learn more about dragon fruit, all the cuttings I have cut I just put them in a pot and they root very fast, thank you for bringing a new plant to the channel 😊
Talk to Kevin from Epic Gardening on his dragon fruit. Maybe do a collab video with him. ❤️
Looking forward to seeing the progress. I haven’t had dragon fruit yet, but moved to Oahu this year.
Be sure to check in with Kevin at Epic Gardening in San Diego. He's got a cool trellis row of dragonfruit in his garden. He's totally into them!
Good luck growing yours…….. BTW, love your videos!
that's awesome Kim I hope everything well for you and the fruit
How exciting to see you getting the cuttings ready to propagate! I have had success rooting them both in water and potting soil. It will be so fun to watch these grow…from my garden to yours!
BTW, my large dragon fruit “tree” started with 4 cuttings around the base, but I think two would have been better because it is very top heavy now.
