  • Pride of Fallbrook is a variety that grew up a Queen Palm Tree at Elk Creek Dragon Fruit Farm and came from The UCCE. Thought to be Trisha, this variety is very different and unique. It is thought to be self fertile and red fleshed. The spines indicate a red fleshed variety but we need to confirm this. This plant was acquired from a Linda Nickerson at Elk Creek Dragon Fruit in Fallbrook, CA.
