The plants die back in winter in cool climates but the tubers will shoot again in spring. The root of Jicama develops swellings the size of a large turnip, (up to 5 per plant) under the surface of the ground, they are often eaten raw with a dusting of salt and chilli powder and a squeeze of lemon or lime. Warning The rest of this plant is poisonous, leave and seeds contain a toxin, eat only the tuber.

I have two green houses up in the Dandenong Ranges that I am growing lots of tropical plants inside and the yellow dragonfruit will just add to the many beautiful plants I have growing inside. Thankyou so much they are amazing and super healthy

I am growing this in Melbourne, its not as cold hardy as the pearl pitaya, I grow this against a warm wall at the front of the house that gets the morning sun, its also protected by my Ruby Guava. I feed with seaweed to keep it strong.

I'd really like to give one of these a go, I've heard that the yellow have the best flavour. I've tried the pink skinned / white flesh variety in the past. They are quenching, but not very flavourful. I expect the yellow to have a bit more to it

Our yellow dragon fruit vines are flourishing! I think the fruit tastes like a mild melon with a flesh texture similar to a kiwi fruit (only white). Everyone I know who tastes this fruit for the first time loves it. I personally do not think drago...

Ease of growth. Local wildlife haven't figured out it is delicious. Expensive to buy locally in the shops. Convenient to pick when ready, rather than drive into town to be told they haven't got any in stock.
