I didn’t expect much from a Vietnamese Giant dragon fruit, but this one was very sweet and pleasant. Maybe the heatwaves we had along with the recent cool nights helped with the sugar buildup

Next generation of carob begins:
These seeds were treated w/ scarification & hot water (each seed had the corner of its very hard seed coat nipped off, then boiling water poured onto seeds to cover & sit for 24 hours).
These seeds are now plump, fully hydrated & ready to sprout!
