Hi….. I want to buy yellow dragon fruit seeds, wtsap me 9796411177
I always enjoy watching your videos of your productive farm. My mouth water everytime you ate what you picked from your garden. I hope my small garden will be as productive as yours in the future. By the way, are you still selling the seeds of yellow df? If so, how much?
Dust Buster vacuum LOL…….
I dream of being able to taste that fruit
do you have a a video that offers advice on growing dragon fruit in cali sense you used to live here?
Billy, I recently planted 2 cuttings of the yellow variety. I dont know if I have planed them the right side down. Can you please tell me how to tell which is the correct side that goes in the soil? Thank you in advance.
Hello your DF are so lovely! You have a Green tumb, taking care of your garden. I live here in the Ca. Bay Area Contra Costa County. Can I please get some cuttings from you? I will pick them up from your place in Alameda. I would like to have some yellow, red, purple, pink, for now. You inspired me in planting Dragon Fruit hope to hear from you. Thank You.
I got yellow DF in Hawaii, but very small. How can I grow bigger fruit size?
If I remember right you were growing some of these in a hanging basket on a stump in one video? I may be mistaken but was going to ask if these could grow well in a set up like that?
Just got a cutting of a yellow dragon with flower buds on it. Will the flower continue to grow or will they die due to lack of root structure?
Bill cracks me up. He loves his yellow dragons.
Hi Bill, I’ve been watching your YouTube video…love it! I would like to buy some yellow dragon fruit cuttings. Please me!
HI BILL.
GREAT VIDEOS ,AND LOVE THEM ALL.
WOULD LIKE TO ASK YOU.
IS THIS YELLOW DRAGON FRUIT SELF FERTILE .AND HOW DO YOU GO ABOUT POLLINATING IT.
IS IT A GOOD POLLINATOR TO OTHER WHITE OR RED FLESH VARIETIES,?
THANK YOU !!
Good Morning Bill, Great video. I am interested in getting some seeds for your yellow dragon fruit. Do you have any available? I lived in Southern California
That's amazing healthy yellow dragon 🐉 plants Mr Bill❣️Congratulations to you ❣️life must be good 😊 for you there in Hawaii ❣️I'm enjoying all your videos ❣️
I love pitaya, I m trying to seedlings selected from the yellow pitaya, i hopi the weather here is good for her.
hi greenguy how long it takes until fruit from seed? and how long it takes to fruit from cuts ? thank you
I've sprouted a few seeds. Hopefully the spines will keep the squirrels away.
I've been looking to buy cuttings of this one I have other varieties,but I can't find this anywhere or most aren't willing to share. do you know where I can buy cuttings? my son's would love to try this one they eat my other's like crazy.
Hi, I just recently planted this variety a few days ago and I read that you were growing it in Fremont. I wondered have it beared fruit for you yet and how old are the plants you have currently growing in Fremont? I live in the east bay too and hope that it will bear fruit.
I was wondering if the flavor of the yellow dragon fruit has a distinct taste besides a more sweeter taste than the red varieties? Red and purple flesh dragon fruit has a sweet taste but not exactly a distinct taste, so I was wondering if the yellow one did. Also is there any tartness in the yellow variety? Thanks!
oh :'( i have never ate that befor :'((( heres no dragon fruit in Algeria
im so sad
Amazing growth! Makes me want to go buy me this variety of dragon fruit!
That looks great and 3 years from seed to fruit is very fast!!.
hello – can i buy some cuttings please?
wow amazing video man!!
Hi, does the yellow dragon fruit grow in the Fremont area? If yes, do you cuttings for sale? Thanks.
Thank you
Hi I have a three foot tall two year old plant that was given to me by a friend. She said it will grow but not give fruit because the weather here in Southern California is not humid enough. She said it was the yellow spiny variety just like the one in this video. Is this true that it will not bear fruit here in southern Cali? What can I do to make it give fruit if it is true? Thanks for any help. 🙂
Hey, I just read that you are in Fremont for part of the year. I am nearby in Milpitas. Can I get some seeds, cuttings, or both? I would love to try the yellow dragonfruit for myself and my mom in SoCal.
Do you have any suggestions for someone who wants to grow these in western Washington state? I live in the foothills of a mountain, and we get some pretty bad freezes. Is there a way to protect from that? Or is it a hopeless endeavor trying to grow a dragon fruit in a place as cold as the pacific NW?
yo how can i get some seeds from you for S. Megalanthus?? im in So. FL
Man oh nan that looks good
Hello Sir, I am from Milpitas and I would like to buy yellow dragon fruit cuttings. How much are they? Thanks.
I'm sorry, the brush was only a story told me by a friend that grows dragon fruit on the Island of Hawaii. I suspect, like most special farm tools it was constructed by the farmers using it. If I was to make one myself I would probably duct tape a rechargeable shoe polishing brush to cordless vacum like a Dust Devil.
Hi Bill. You mentioned a rechargeable brush vacuum that the Israelis have developed to remove the spines. Do you happen to know where one can buy this specific brush? Thanks!
I sell this plant in the states, both in Hawaii and CA. The problem with the sales is that cactus grown in HI stays in HI because of the opuntia moth quarantine. What I raise in CA has to stay in Alameda County because of the BLM quarantine. If you are local in CA you can stop by and buy one but you have to move it yourself, I can't legally. Otherwise you can buy seed from me shipped from Hawaii in January when the next crop comes ripe.
John, I have cuttings for the yellow dragon fruit here in Fremont but I am in a LBM quarantine zone imposed by the AG Dept. The last time I even mailed Mac nut seeds with the green husk on the package got stopped in the Santa Clara Post Office by an AG sniffer dog. If you are driving through Fremont you are welcome to carry them but I can't ship. I will be back in Hawaii very soon and I can ship seeds from there. The seeds are how I got the fruit in the first place, the are true to type.
How you get one depends on where you are located. I got mine by picking fruit off of a friends farm in Puna HI and growing them from seed. If you are located on the Big Island of Hawaii I can help you. I also have rooted cuttings at my greenhouse in Fremont, CA. Otherwise I see the seeds are easily found on the internet when you google "buy Selenicereus megalanthus." If all else fails I will have fresh seeds available from my crop in Jan. & Feb. 2014.
green garden guy1, how did you obtain this plant?
yes!! i will try this too thanks!!!
I have not personally attempted to do this cross but according to an article by several Israeli authors in the American Journal of Botany the cross has been successful. It appears that Selenicereus and Hylocereus are inter fertile in reciprocal crosses. I suspect this is how the developed the yellow Hylocereus called Golden Dragon. I will try this myself in the future and see what I get. It would definitely improve the quality of the Red Dragons.
hi, i have red dragon fruits and like to try the yellow!! this yellow plant,the polen of the flower is good polinate the red ones?or not possible? thanks
You will enjoy the yellow very much. It is sweeter and has a bit more character than the pink.
We're growing one in Florida, hasn't fruited yet…but our pinks ones have!
We'll look forward to tasting the yellow ones.
