Self-Sterile

Self-sterile dragon fruit pollination requires cross-pollination from a different, compatible variety, because these plants cannot produce fruit using their own pollen. Many of the most sought-after varieties are self-sterile, and the payoff for a little extra planning is often exceptional flavor, size or color. This category collects self-sterile types from our farms, including Physical Graffiti, Purple Haze, Halley’s Comet, Dark Star and Maria Rosa, offered as cuttings, rooted plants and grafts depending on the listing. To set fruit, pair a self-sterile plant with a compatible partner that blooms on the same nights, or hand-pollinate using collected pollen so timing is never a problem. This selection is for growers ready to run at least two varieties, breeders planning specific crosses, and collectors chasing the standout genetics that happen to be self-sterile. If you would rather buy stored pollen to guarantee fruit set, see our pollen category. Everything here ships vendor-direct from US farms, grown from proven true-to-name mother plants and shipped fresh. Back to all products →
