Hi tfmc,
So you have a baby Dragon. I am not an expert on Dragons but I've got a couple of them. I had never heard of a Dragon Fruit plant until about 18 months ago and I thought wow, I would love to grow one of them. And then just a week later I saw them at a big box store. I was so surprised. I didn't think they could grow here in my zone. But they were pretty cheap so I bought 2.

Well, I soon found out it is too cold to grow them here. Big bummer. But I figured I'd try to move them indoors in the winter. I needed to come up with a plan. Well, I still haven't come up with a good plan! They grow huge! And last week when I moved them indoors I decided I don't ever want to do that again! I broke off 4 little segments and so I put them in pots of dirt. They are now rooting and I have no idea what I am going to do with 6 of them!

Anyway, here is a recent post that I answered a few months ago. Just for info...
The thread "Please inspect my Dragon fruit plant inspection" in Ask a Question forum
In it I gave a link to a good website with lots of info.

And this is another good link that has excellent info for you.

And this is a picture of what mine look like today. I think they are going to stay there in my laundry room until he$% freezes over because I'm not moving them again!
I hope you come up with a good plan and enjoy your Dragon.
