North Queensland Red Dragon Fruit

 

Description:

Red flesh and red skin

Fast-growing with thick branches 

Self-fertile

White flower

It's said to be the same as Bundy red which was a dragon fruit variety produced by the prickly patch. I am growing separately to Bundy Red to compare. This is a better fruit than the Colombian supreme red dragon fruit. 

This plant did suffer a little more rust than other plants. 

Has not been tested to see if it self fertile or sterile but set fruit on every flower with no human intervention

Purchase from a Qld commercial farm 

A nice subtle sweet, very nice fruit with hints of honey

Crunchy seeds

Firm flesh

Brix 11- 15
