Originated in Honduras where it was collected from a US agriculture university, and this is where it received its name.
We were not the biggest fan of this fruit until this year (2024) in the 3rd growing season the fruit was a lot bigger and had a much better flavour. Having the diverse range of dragon fruit plants around it definitely helped with x plantation. There is a Thi commercial white planted across from this plant in the next row, I suspect they were cross-pollinated together to give us an improved fruit than we have had in the past.
Care:
Plant into an excellent quality potting mix to a depth of 2-3 cm
