Description

Georges White

Georges White Dragon Fruit variety comes from the genus Hylocereus and the species undatus. The fruit has a bright pink exterior with green-tipped fins. The flesh is a grayish-white with lots of small crunchy seeds. Fruits weigh between three quarter to one and a half pounds. The fruit flavor is mild, with an average brix score of 13. During the heat of summer, Spicy Exotics found this variety to have some fruit issues as some undatus do. For this reason, Spicy Exotics gives a two rating for fruit production. Georges White is very similar to Thai Dragon when comparing plant stems, flowers, and fruit and could be the same variety.

The flowers of the Georges White variety are self-fertile. For the first flower cycle, Spicy Exotics hand-pollinated, and we suggest this for all types of Dragon Fruit to ensure fruit and verify your variety. This variety is also a robust grower with meaty three-sided stems that are bright green. Small to medium spins occur along the rib line of each stem. Growth, flowers, and fruit are similar to most Hylocereus undatus. Spicy Exotics collected this variety from a tropical grower in California.
