Dragon fruit, pitaya or pitahaya

Dragon fruit is the fruit of a climbing cactus known as pitaya of the genus Hylocereus. This plant originates from southern Mexico, the Pacific region of Guatemala, and Costa Rica.

Varieties:

The fruit can vary in color depending on the variety, ranging from white, carmine, or dark red, with some varieties also being light yellow. The flesh is interspersed with small black seeds. Pink varieties are very refreshing, slightly acidic, and significantly distinctive compared to other varieties.

Harvest:

Dragon fruit has a staggered production period lasting from mid-July to December. The fruits must be harvested when they are ripe. Pruning is done directly into the plant, ensuring not to damage the fruit or seriously disturb the leaves. Fruits must be presented in perfect condition, without blemishes or scars.

Benefits:

Dragon fruit offers numerous health benefits, including aiding in weight loss, improving digestion, lowering cholesterol levels, boosting the immune system, and increasing energy levels. It also helps in the prevention of cancer and heart diseases, and protects the body against bacteria and fungi.
