Was never really interested in dragon fruit but after watching your videos now am crazy over them keep up the good work and i can't wait till your able to do international shipping
Dig the look of the plant and, yes, the flowers are gorgeous but to confirm what a traveling chef observed in his show dragonfruit is the fruit that "...never fails to disappoint." Maybe it's because I haven't come the one variety that actually isn't bland and vaguely sweet. I mean, it doesn't hold a candle to a pitaya that I've had out in the desert. That desert variety has an unreal sweetness and flavor that makes it my favorite fruit. I know people label dragonfruit as pitaya but the skin between the two is entirely different, as is the plant. They could very well be related but so far, I haven't been won over by dragonfruit but I'll give your recommendations a try. Thanks!
Hi Richard, here in Italy of the 5 varieties you show in the video, only the Purple Haze is available. Could you tell me which pollens it can crossbreed with? Hybrydum, Condor, White Vietnamese, American Beauty, Halley's Comet, Physical Graffity, Thomson? I only have these available. Thank you.
Hi Richard, in relation to the flavor and texture, what do you think of Phisical Grafity and Halley Comet, is similar to purple haze? Just this season I'm going to test Asunta 5.
Please make a video on self sterile cross pollination. What pollens work well and what pollen doesnt work. Can you mix a bunch of different pollens together and use that to pollinate a bunch of different sterile varieties? Would you use Vietnam white pollen to pollinate sugar dragon to get bigger fruits from sugar dragon. can you use a sterile pollen variety to pollinate a self fertile to get bigger fruit? When you cross pollinate does it change the flavor?
Hi Richard, whenever you have some free time, are you able to make a list of most majors varieties that are related, don’t care about the rare one, please share it to your followers, as a newbie there is too many hybrid, too many grafting, it’s hard to know who’s related to what and u hardly can find it online, please share your knowledge and expertise with us newbie, we get too excited to just see a flower and really don’t want to test and see if they are related or the pollen fail to except and have to wait for another year 😂, It be nice to have a list and know, thanks much appreciated
For me physical graffiti just edges out purple haze. I find the flavor just a bit better and it gives me bigger fruits. Purple haze i enjoy best after it's been in the fridge a few days.
I know the video is about sterile Dragonfruit xD but do you have any recommendations for cross-pollinating with Dragon Fruit - Zamorano (Hylocereus polyrhizus) ??
I wanna see more videos of the actual grafting and maybe some time laps of the growth. Also is there a better rootstock other than the vietnamese white for grafting?
Can you parcel the Purple Haze & Red Laverine variety cutting to India ? Is it possible? Would you love to take the challenge to make it possible brother? 😊
Hi… Richard. I been watching your Vlog. How can I get Wild berry skittles, Purple hazes,Dragon Ball Z and Asunta 5 cuttings. Can you sell some to me. Thanks
Hi, Richard! You have great dragon fruit varieties to show us as always. You said yours took 40-45 days to ripen, I was wondering if the temperature is a factor of ripening? I harvested mine in 55-60 days and they still seemed under-riped. My sugar dragon barely turned slightly red after 60 days. I live in north Cal. Any thought?
In another video of yours, the top 5 were other varieties of Dragon fruit (.Pink panther . Condor . American beauty . Sour Puch Kids . Sugar Dragon fruit). Now you are telling us other varieties. Finally, stop making fun of us and tell us which are your Top 5 that are tasty and sweet. Σε άλλο βίντεο σου, τα top 5 ήταν άλλες ποικιλίες Dragon fruit (. Pink panther . Condor . American beauty . Sour putch Kids . Sugar Dragon fruit ). Τώρα είναι μας λες άλλες ποικιλίες. Τελικά σταμάτα να μας κοροϊδεύεις και πες μας ποια είναι τα Top 5 σου που είναι γευστικά και γλυκά.

I would like to see a video about when you should tip the ends of the branches and which branches you should tip to induce flowering.
There are a few videos on tipping on my channel
Very surprised Connie Mayer and Bruni aren't being shown any love here.
I have been watching your videos for long time ..and love the way you care your dragons 💕 Love you brother ❤️
Thank you so much 😀
This is so amazing, I'm jealous of them seedlings. I want to plant this fruit so badly.
@GraftingDragonFruit, Where can i get some Wils Berry Skittles/Asunta 5 cuttings. I would love to start growing some since Im in South Florida.
I wanna see videos of how to protect your dragon fruit from the winter months if you cant move them indoors.
That’s coming soon
Asunta 5, Asunta 5 Patricia, Connie Gee, Asunta 6, Ohana Express, my top 5 😊

Who created Ohana Express?

Hey Richard... great video, I'm looking to get Asunta 5, and wild berry skittles cuttings or rooted plants.
By the the way Richard.... thanks to you, your friends and followers, I was able to get varieties from your top 5 self pollinating video
Hopefully I’ll have some available on my website later this fall. Some people in my fb group might have them available

pollinate sugar dragon to get bigger fruits from sugar dragon. can you use a sterile pollen variety to pollinate a self fertile to get bigger fruit? When you cross pollinate does it change the flavor?
You can pretty much use any pollen except the ones in the same lineage/family line

Same here ❤
Hi Richard I just start washing your channel last weekend I really enjoy I’m wandering haw can I get cutting of your 5 sterle favorit collection tanks
Could you tell us what type of products you apply to dragon fruits to encourage their growth and thickening?
For me physical graffiti just edges out purple haze. I find the flavor just a bit better and it gives me bigger fruits. Purple haze i enjoy best after it's been in the fridge a few days.
Can’t go wrong with PG either
Another great video! Maybe now you can show us your top five white flesh dragon fruit.
That’s a great idea
Hello Richard Le, could you tell me that where to get those varieties of dragon fruits?
Hopefully I’ll have some available on my website later this fall. Some people in my fb group might have them available
What variety do you use to pollinate your Assunta.5 and wild.berry?
Hi Richard, can I buy cuttings for each of those 5 sterile dragon varieties? How much for each cutting?
Don’t have any available at the moment. Hopefully later this winter on my website
Richard, you mention Asunta 5 as one of your favorites, but which version of Asunta 5? Paco? Starburst? There are so many versions of Asunta 5.
Ricardo eres mi UA-camr ftuto de Dragón favorito 😉
Also, where do you buy your Foxfarm (ocean fresh or happy frog) and how much was it for the 2 cu ft.?
Bought them at Garden Grove Hydro and Nursery Supply. You should check out my new soil video
Hi. Will you be selling dragon fruit seeds on your website this winter? And will international shipping be available?
Working on having some available but no international shipping
A little confused here, that “sterile” varieties discussed still have fruit production. So what is meant by that word?
It means you cannot use its own pollen to pollinate the flower. You have to use pollen from another variety
I have to get some more varieties 😊
Can never have enough 😆
Im in North Dakota and am new at growing dragon fruit. Can the cuttings be shipped in the winter time?
So amazing! Do you sell? I want to buy every variety, and the yellow one too ?
Are all Laverne red self sterile ?? I got mine from Alik after seeing his 3lb fruit last taste test vid 😊
Yes
Is it possile to collect these authentic varieties from you ? I'm from Bangladesh 😂.I have already watched most of your videos.lt's driving me crazy
I have to try to get ahold of you to order at least 4 different varieties of the Non self pollinating cuttings.😅
Hopefully I’ll have some available on my website later this fall

Hey Richard do you ever experience fruit growing halfway or more and fail to get fully ripened?
Haven’t experienced much of that.

Try asking in my FB group. Some sellers may have them
I know the video is about sterile Dragonfruit xD but do you have any recommendations for cross-pollinating with Dragon Fruit - Zamorano
(Hylocereus polyrhizus) ??
I finally got the concept of self-sterile varieties - my question was on topic. Thank you for such an amazing teaching video!
Can they survive the winter in California when they stay outside?
Depends on the temperature. Last winter was tough but most of mine survived
do you sell the cuttings?
Hopefully I’ll have some available on my website later this fall
I wanna see more videos of the actual grafting and maybe some time laps of the growth. Also is there a better rootstock other than the vietnamese white for grafting?
There’s always a bunch on my channel showing how to graft. Time lapse of growth is impossible because growth takes months
I want to obtain those varieties you have , can I order pls
Can you parcel the Purple Haze & Red Laverine variety cutting to India ? Is it possible? Would you love to take the challenge to make it possible brother? 😊

Do you ever catch your neighbors taking fruits or clippings , they are right against the adjoining wall . Lol
LOL! No problems with that.
How can I purchase a cutting of Wild Berry Skittles from you? Do you sell?
Hopefully will have some available on my website later this winter
Agree with most of it. But I don’t see the point of recommending something that 99.9% don’t have access to.
Because it will be one day and allow growers to add to their list of potentials

In another video of yours, the top 5 were other varieties of Dragon fruit (.Pink panther

. American beauty
. Sour Puch Kids
. Sugar Dragon fruit).
Now you are telling us other varieties. Finally, stop making fun of us and tell us which are your Top 5 that are tasty and sweet.
Σε άλλο βίντεο σου, τα top 5 ήταν άλλες ποικιλίες Dragon fruit (. Pink panther

Sterile varieties are trash . Not for commercial and home garden . Some may taste good but it is pointless.
Sterile varieties don't make sense . Nothing special and who's gonna bother in a commercial orchard or even own backyard.
It’s okay if you don’t understand sterile varieties. It’s not for everyone.
