Description:

In nature, this climbing cactacea uses its aerial roots to grow on rocks and trees, up to ten meters in height. Its green stems are covered with numerous white areoles and small thin spines. It has an initially erect shape, that tends to fall back with growth. Flowering occurs from late spring to early summer, generating large white flowers with lime green basal petals, which bloom only at night. Its fruits, widely known as "dragon fruit" are edible, highly sought after for their nourishing properties, in fact they are rich in fiber and vitamins.

Plant care:

It requires exposure to full sun or even partial shade, as long as it still receives a lot of light during all seasons.

It prefers rather mild temperatures, it survives well even in temperatures close to zero, provided the soil is dry.

Water moderately, only when the soil is completely dry. It is sufficient once a week in spring and summer, a reduction every two months in autumn, and to suspend completely in winter.

A well-draining soil is optimal, even better if further enriched with inert materials such as pumice, sand or lapillus.

They do not need frequent fertilizations, it will be sufficient to dilute fertilizer with watering once a year.
