I actually sent an email to Edgar asking him about the original source (DF variety) of these plants. We will know when he responds to the inquiry.
Received plants today from Rareseeds.com. Can anyone provide the seed source for these DF variety since they were propagated from seeds, not from cuttings? Thank you.
If I remember the story correctly, Joe Simcox was visiting Edgar Valdivia one day and while sampling dragon fruit thought that this particular seedling was the best of those that he tried. Edgar generously gave him a cutting to propagate, and when asked about the name said "call it what ever you want." So Joe took it back to Baker Creek for propagation and named it Edgar's Baby. I have been growing one out for two years now, and hopefully I will get fruit this season.Cheers,Richard
