Dragon Fruit. (Vietnam)


Dragon fruit is a local fruit. Its pink on the outside and white on the inside with thousands of tiny black seeds. We liked dragon fruit -- its actually a bit bland given how cool it looks, but its very good. I noticed when we were driving to Mui Ne there were these trees all over the landscape. I couldn't figure what was growing until we stumbled across one of the plants at the hotel. Its the coolest plant. The fruit grows in the strangest way so I have to take a few pictures!
See the fruit at the end of the branches?


Unripe fruit -- still green.

Ripening fruit. Its much pinker than this when fully ripe, but you get the picture!
