The Dragon Fruit Seeds bring a touch of the tropics to the windowsill – without plane tickets or jet lag. Dragon fruit, also called pitaya, originally comes from Central America, but has long since made its mark in Asian fruit bowls with its bright pink skin and speckled white flesh. Botanically, it belongs to the cactus family, which isn’t immediately obvious, but one tiny spine is enough to reveal its true nature. Its taste is reminiscent of a mix between kiwi and melon, but with less drama. Anyone who takes on cultivation is rewarded with a remarkable plant that can even bloom – with large white flowers that open at night. The included instructions explain exactly how to grow a handsome pitaya from its many tiny seeds – even without fruit, it still shines as a decorative house cactus.
