Bring the tropics to your windowsill! With these dragon fruit seeds, you can grow one of the world's most exotic plants: the pitaya (Hylocereus undatus). Surprisingly, dragon fruit belongs to the cactus family — but it grows as a climbing plant that can reach several metres. Its spectacular, huge white flowers open only at night and are among the most beautiful blooms in the plant kingdom.
Growing Guide: How to Sow
- Sowing: Do not cover the tiny seeds with soil — dragon fruit is a light germinator. Scatter the seeds on moist seed compost and press lightly.
- Cover: Use cling film or a glass lid to retain moisture. Ventilate briefly each day.
- Temperature: Optimal at 20–25 °C. A bright location without direct sunlight is ideal.
- Germination: The first tiny seedlings appear after 10–14 days — much faster than many other exotic plants!
- Transplanting: Once seedlings reach about 3 cm, transplant individually into small pots.
Care Tips
- Support: Pitaya is a climbing cactus and needs a trellis, stake, or lattice to climb.
- Watering: More than a typical desert cactus! Keep the substrate slightly moist but avoid waterlogging.
- Location: Bright and warm. Outdoors in summer, indoors in winter at minimum 10 °C.
- Flowering: With good care, the plant can bloom after 3–5 years — an unforgettable experience!
FAQ
Will I harvest real dragon fruit?

Is dragon fruit really a cactus?
Yes! Pitaya belongs to the climbing cacti (Hylocereus), originating from tropical rainforests of Central America.
