Hylocereus undatus - Dragon fruit Tree (Pitaya) ⌀12cm

Hylocereus undatus is a succulent plant, more preciously an epiphytic species of cactus that is commonly known as the Dragon Fruit or Pitaya. It is native to Mexico and Central America but is now widely cultivated in many tropical and subtropical regions around the world, including Southeast Asia, South America, and Australia.

Hylocereus undatus, also known as the Dragon Fruit or Pitaya, can be grown as a houseplant in the right conditions. While it is typically grown outdoors in tropical and subtropical regions, it can also thrive indoors in a bright and warm environment.

As a houseplant, the Dragon Fruit requires well-draining soil and a container with drainage holes to prevent waterlogging. It prefers bright, indirect light but can also tolerate some direct sunlight. A south-facing window or a grow light can provide the necessary light for indoor growth.

While it can take several years for a Dragon Fruit plant to produce fruit, the plant itself can make a beautiful and unique addition to any indoor space. Its striking appearance, along with its health benefits and ease of care, make it a popular choice for houseplant enthusiasts.
