Sowing instructions

The seeds of Hylocereus undatus "Amarillo", also known as yellow dragon fruit cactus, are relatively easy to handle and offer you the opportunity to grow a tropical plant in your garden or greenhouse. The ideal time for sowing is spring, when temperatures are consistently between 20-30°C. You should place the seeds on the surface of moist, well-drained substrate and press them down lightly without covering them. Make sure that the substrate remains moist at all times, but not too wet to avoid mold growth. Germination usually takes place within 1-3 weeks. You can sow the seeds in small pots or seed trays and place them in a warm, sunny location to ensure optimal conditions.

Harvest, use & storage

It usually takes 2-3 years for the Hylocereus undatus "Amarillo" to bear fruit for the first time. The fruit has a sweet, slightly sour aroma and can be eaten fresh or processed into juices, smoothies and desserts. The flesh is also ideal for adding to yogurt or as an ingredient in salads. The dragon fruit can be stored in a cool place to preserve its freshness, or you can also freeze the flesh to keep it for longer.
