fruit of the week


The Tropical Dragon Fruit is an exotic cactus fruit that is sweet, juicy, and crisp and has a taste reminiscent of pear, kiwi and watermelon. At least that is what is written. I just bought it today and haven't tried it yet. This cactus blooms only at night It has large white fragrant flowers of the typical cactusflower shape, that are often called Moonflower or Queen of the Night.
It's also been called a strawberry pear

What a beautiful fruit. It sounds like it would be delicious with the pear, kiwi and watermelon. I bet it taste so refreshing. It also has a beautiful name, Moonflower or Queen of the Night. I'm going to show Katie, pink is her favorite color. She also will like those names. Let us know if you like it.
