Growing Tips

For best results, plant your unrooted cutting in well-draining cactus soil and keep it in bright, indirect light until roots develop. Water sparingly at first, increasing frequency once the cutting is established. Provide a trellis or support structure, as dragon fruit cacti are natural climbers that can reach several feet in height under optimal conditions.
