Selenicereus costaricencis (syn. Hylocereus) is a highly prized cactus vine known as Costa Rican or red pitaya that is cultivated for its sweet-tasting dragon fruit and enormous night-blooming fragrant flowers. The fruit is oblong and about 4-6 inches long by 3-4 inches wide with a bumpy magenta-pink skin. The moderately sweet and refreshing flesh is magenta with crunchy black seeds. White flowers are nocturnal and usually last just one night where pollination is necessary to set fruit. A cool houseplant with the potential for delicious edible fruit. Photo: Wikipedia.
