Dragon Fruit Timeline


Dragon fruit with a deep magenta flesh purchased from grocery
store in November 2014. First time tasting one too and was not
that impressed with taste but otherwise a very exotic plant worth
the attempt to grow from seed.

Scrubbed the flesh from the tiny black seed and placed said seeds
into my Salton yogurt maker given to me by my brother Gordon.
Provided some new all cotton moisten pads to keep the seeds moist
but not drowning. This was on Nov 28 ,2014.
