This is a dragon flower, which will soon become a dragon fruit whose fruit is delicious to eat because it has a sweet, sour and fresh taste. Believe me that this is a tree that I planted myself and this is the first time I can see directly how this plant grows, flowers to bear fruit. But to be able to see the beauty of this dragon flower, then we see it at night because this flower only blooms at night. but to become a dragon fruit, we must do manual pollination first, usually I do it at night by applying the pollen of this flower to the pistil evenly, this does sound a little complicated but it will be easy if we are used to doing it, but there are many people who fail at this stage and the most important thing is that we want to learn. I really like this dragon flower and I often enjoy its beauty at night, I forgot to take a picture of it at that time, and I took a picture of it during the day where the flower that had already started to wilt.

Okay friends, now I will share some pictures of the dragon flower here.
