Delight- H. undatus X H. guatemalensis California Dragon Fruit Plant

Description:

Delight is a Medium/large fruit approx 370g
Beautiful light pink flesh
This was the favourite of Paul Thompson (3-S) a San Diego Grower in the early 1980s. 
This is a very fertile variety and a vigorous grower.

A great commercial-quality plant and perfect for the backyard grower
Self-pollinating but may perform better with x-pollination is an Australian Facebook dragon fruit feedback (24.12.23). Both Spicy Exotics, Daleys Fruit Trees and my original supplier listed this variety as self-pollinating. Richard Le from grafting dragon fruit suggests this should be x-pollenated.
