Dragon Fruit stems with different numbers of sides

The normal dragon fruit plants have three sided leaves, but few of them have leaves with different number of sides. It just happens that in my brand new collection of dragon fruit plants, I found examples of different sided leaves, including 5 sided leaves, 4 sided leaves, 3 sided leaves and 2 sided leaves. I think it is quite interesting.

Mine have random branches with 4 sides, thought it was odd as most were 3, now I understand that it's normal!

I have a small cutting of dragonfruit off of a larger 3 sided plant. And now there is a small shoot coming off of it with 5! It can have multiple numbers of sides on the same ppant i guess

Glad someone made this video- I was wondering why one of my dragon fruit branches had 4 sides when all the others only have 3. I thought my plant was mutating 🤣

Sometimes dragon fruit plants from seedlings will have many sides, but as the plant matures it will grow new shoots with 3-4 sides. This can also happen to new shoots on cuttings, which sometimes only have two sides until they grow larger and establish a third side or grow a new shoot.

I planted dragon fruit seeds from a fruit that I bought at the supermarket, the seedlings all have 4 sides

Now that you've been growing these awhile, do you think that perhaps some of your dragon fruit were grafted onto rootstock other than dragon fruit?

I don't think so. I don't see any grafting points in these cuttings. When they are young, some dragon fruits have more sidings than the more mature form, especially those with the red flower genes such as Bruni and Cathie Van Arun. Tricia is one that have more than 3 side branches when it is young too. Almost all of my hybrid seedlings from the cross between Cathie Van Arun and Tricia had 4 sided branches, but when they grow up, most of them changed to 3 sides.

Ok, good to know. Learning as we go. Was just a thought. Thanks. @@xiaoli2142
