Shayna dragon fruit variety is a cross between the Condor (Hylocereus guatemalensis) and the White Vietnamese (Hylocereus undatus). It has sweet purple flesh and weighs between 8 and 10 ounces. It grows a perfectly round fruit that weighs one pound. The skin of the fruit is reddish to pink and has small green fins on the outside. The flesh inside is a bright purple color and has a semi-firm, juicy texture.  The bloom cycle has been 2-3 every year.  The plant grows in smaller segments.  Medium annual new growth.
++Self Pollinating but we have had some flowers take and some not.  When self pollinated, and fruit sets, it has produced smaller; we recommend  cross pollination for set and larger fruit.  Blooms tend to be earlier in season.  Blooms with American Beauty, Robles, Sugar Dragon.

The mother plant is from Edgar Valdivia around 2016-2017. 

 

Dragon fruit are a tropical fruiting cactus. Dragon fruit will not grow in cold climates, so make sure that the temperature is above 40 degrees Fahrenheit to prevent cold damage. Protect from hard freezes. Dragon fruit can be grown in containers or in the ground, planted in well-drained soil, full sun and trained to a heavy-duty trellis to support weight of this fast-growing plant. Avoid overplanting into very large containers, instead, gradually increase container size in relation to the plant size. We recommend a complete fertilizer during the growing season. Avoid overwatering in the winter to ensure the plant does not rot off.

New Shayna Variety

The Shayna Stalk that I received was healthy and plump. Along with this beauty I purchased a Lisa stalk. It was equally healthy and both were about 15 inches long. After letting them callous over a few days, I set them in some good soil. Can’t wait to see sprouts. Anybody know if these are compatible pollinators?
