🌵 How to grow Dragon Fruit from a cutting - Quick Guide

🐉 Get a healthy cutting


Use a 6-10 inch long stem cutting from a mature dragon fruit plant. Let the cut end dry in the shade for 2-5 days so it forms a callus. This also helps prevent rot and fungus.

🐉 Prepare the soil


Use well-draining soil - well drained potting mix, Adenium mix, or cactus mix is ideal. Dragon fruit hates wet feet!

🐉 Plant the cutting


Stick the callused end about 2-3 inches deep into the soil. Make sure it's planted upright (the way it grew on the parent plant).

🐉 Support it


Add a trellis or post. Dragon fruit is a climbing cactus and needs something to grow on.

🐉 Water lightly


Water once after planting, then wait until the soil dries before watering again. Overwatering can rot the cutting.

🐉 Give it sun and warmth


Place in bright, indirect sunlight while it roots. Once established, it can handle full sun.

🐉 Watch it grow!


Roots usually form in 2-4 weeks. New growth means it's taking off! This is the time to Ferilize it!
