Introducing the Official ASUNTA 7 Dragon Fruit with Edgar Valdivia

- Hello dragon fruit enthusiasts! Today marks the birth of the newest ASUNTA 7 dragon fruit variety. Edgar Valdivia and I tasted two ASUNTA 7 seedlings, and the A7-S1 seedling was superior in terms of flavor, texture, complexity, and brix score. Therefore, A7-S1 was selected by Edgar as the official ASUNTA 7. We wanted to express our gratitude to Edgar for his incredible 25 years of contribution in dragon fruit hybridization, cheers!

Happy Growing, Cheers!
How fun. Congratulations to both of you on the release of Asunta 7. Lots of great information shared.
Yes, Edgar has so much experience to share!
Great video and educational. To think you had the luxury to be the first person to introduce Asunta 7 with the one and only Edgar!!! Great Job!!! Happy growing and cheers!!!
Thank you for your kind words bro, cheers!
I have 3 seedlings of Asunta 7 as well
Nice, mine grows very thick and plump.
Great work to even further this some times would big larger pots between the earlier teen stages before fruit in 7 to 8 months by giving more room your able to accelerat the growth. Among using ferments in a Korean natural farming manner
Wow, never heard of the Korean way! You are right on taking great care of the plants with the proper fertilizer and apply them in different stages of the seasons. In fact this is the very first year of ASUNTA 7 to bear fruits after just 18 months grafted the seedlings given by Edgar Valdivia, surprisingly the fruit tasted delicious and was so much enjoyable!
I'd really like to see if the review of the sister variety of Asunta 7 when you have a mature fruit from it. Thanks for the video and your ebay channel.
yes, next season for sure! I still have 5 pots of Asunta 6 and Asunta 7 seedlings from Edgar Valdivia that I am growing, knowing they all are not going to be identical, will be grafting them during off-season.
Keep up the good work
Much appreciated!
That colorful flesh!😊
It is, magenta red.
I love Edgar and the work he’s done to promote Dragon Fruit … however I don’t approve of his individual seedling tracking approach … for example if you raise 100 children … each one will be different.
They may be similar… some may become brain surgeons … some may become bank robbers …
So for example if there are 100 … A7 seedlings each will/can grow, look, taste different …
So if Edgar gives away who knows how many A7 seedlings which seedling (kid) 👍👎 do you have ?
Nothing wrong with giving out new seedling hybrids to people, but at least have an assigned number associated to that unnamed or A7 seedling for tracking purposes …
May I suggest viewing some more videos on RUclips by: Kim Phan Dragon Fruit
Hi Don, thanks for your comment! I know how you labeled your seedlings systematically before distributed to Tye, Kim or Paul, so that once one of them produced fruit, the others would be aware of what it was. One thing I am not certain if Edgar uses a system that is comparable to yours.
In fact, Kim and I know each other very well. I purchased Chantilly Lace, Kinsley, Amelie, Queen Deanery, Connie Gee, and Celester cuttings from Kim. I always look up to you, Don, when it comes to hybridizing dragon fruit. Years ago, I tried to contact you, Don. Perhaps I can come see you soon so we can chat about dragon fruit. My Facebook page is: facebook.com/leewifarms, happy to connect with you!
Awesome! Do you have a photo of A1 bloom, bud or fruit? Go A7!!!
Whoow this is wonderful I am from Namibia African I love to do Dragon fruit farming I'm verry interesting but don't have seedlings for dragons fruit I have a big land I need assistance from you
Hi Sir Edgar! Been quite a years since we came over to the dragonfruit festival in Irvine. Sad to say mom Edita Dacuycuy had died last 2021
my condolences, I have heard both Edgar and Pat mentioned about Edita Dacuycuy a lot!
@@leewifarms hope to have another chance going to the festival and to meet you as well Sir and the rest of the international group.
@@mimiedacuycuy1651sure, look forward to it, btw I have relayed your message to Edgar. Keep up the good work in cultivating dragon fruits and the related products!
Nice
Thanks!
the green one looks like it's not time to pick yet.
There will be a race next year to see which seedling keeps the title of “Official Asunta 7” I should have fruit on 2 seedlings next year and ik there lots of people with seedlings as well
I still have so many A7 seedlings that I need to graft but 2 are mature and are ready to fruit this up coming season. I’m looking for the A7 with a colored flower and super tasty fruit! Let’s get it everyone 😁
@@GraftingDragonFruit yessir I have to coming next year and they look ocamponis so I’m excited about it
the same two parents make two different offsprings?
It’s really premature to call it official
Hi, so Edgar has set a few criteria for his Asunta hybrids, and these criteria applied to Asunta 5 and Asunta 6 as well. Fortunately, the A7-S1 seedling that I grew met those criteria. It's quite surprise the fruit profile taste amazing in its first season of fruit, hope your seedlings thrive as well.
Comparing to what? There’s lots of A7 seedlings fruits coming next year including mine. Just like A5 there’s always another fruit that will surpass that criteria
Cool, I thought an Asunta 7 would be a cross pollinate between Asunta 6 and Tricia. It's still great seeing new varieties. Still waiting for any dragon fruit plant to bloom to cross pollinate with Cacti I have.
