It will be curious to compare Paul Thomson's Physical Graffiti, Cosmic Charlie, Purple Haze, and Dark Star side by side! The flavor descriptions are similar. I wonder if they are that much different.
Looking good! What did you pollenate Dark Star with? Do you separate pollen or mix all your pollen? Thanks for all your shares and videos with ALL your plants.
Paul, Dark Star was my only dragon fruit to flower last year and it did produce 1 fruit on its own. My understanding from Laguna Hills Nursery is that Dark Star and some others are self pollinating when closer to the coast where it is a bit more humid. The guy at Spicy Exotics I believe has said the same for some dragon fruit varieties (can't recall which). Thanks for the great videos!
I love dark star..one of my favorites for sure.. and man that looks super juicy!!
It was an excellent fruit! Thanks for watching.
Dark star has been great for me. I’ll get to try out my first fruit it in a couple weeks
Nice! It's a great fruit.
Thanks for the video Paul! Still waiting on my first dark star fruit. Anticipation through the roof after watching this video!
So nice of you. You will enjoy this fruit!

I agree! I think they are similar but PG, PH, and DS are usually the favorites by many growers.
Ouu I love Rambutan! Great video, as usual.
Thanks for watching!

Thanks! I mix pollen when it's available, unless I want to collect seeds and grow some hybrids.
Very cool Paul, thank you. looking forward to PG Condor and Dark star I should have 400 trees going by next season.
Awesome! Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the video really interesting 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Paul im not sure if i ask you before if it is make your blood sugar goes down ? Thanks

@@RAREDRAGONFRUIT I read it Paul thanks. And i thinks the fruit is helping me with my sugar diabetes. Im very happy 😄
how many day from flower to the day fruit harvested?
It was between 40-45 days in my climate this year.
Que variedad es más comercial? Dark Star o laverne red??. Exelente trabajo!!!
I'd say both have commercial potential.

It's definitely a debate. It's never set fruit for me on it own or with its own pollen yet here and I've tried numerous times.
