One plant I really love in our garden is the dragon fruit. This tropical cactus does very well in our climate and I'm hoping to get more production out of it.
We have two varieties, one with white flesh and the other a vibrant, hot-pink flesh like a watermelon on acid.
It's time to eat this one. Eaten straight, it's ok. Slightly sweet but a bit bland.
The best, we've found, is to cut it up in cubes and very lightly sprinkle a little powdered sugar on it.
This amps up the natural sweetness and the taste is as stunning as the looks of the fruit.
Best of all, I went out this morning and found more flower buds on the plant. More fruit to come...
