Selenicereus guatemalensis hybrid
(formerly classified under Hylocereus guatemalensis
Purple Haze is a striking, high-quality dragon fruit variety created by Paul Thompson (5-S). The plant has slightly longer spines than many hybrids and thick, robust lobes, giving it a strong, vigorous structure.
The fruit is visually stunning, with magenta skin and brilliant purple flesh. Purple Haze is a quick-growing variety that prefers a little extra shade, though it will tolerate full sun once established. Large white night-blooming flowers are produced during the flowering period.
Fruit size can reach up to 1 kg under good conditions. Our first fruit weighed 600 g, with larger fruit expected as the plant matures. Purple Haze is self-sterile and requires cross-pollination to set fruit.
Highly compatible for cross pollination (recommended):
