Palora Yellow is similar to the Yellow dragonfruit in shape and taste, yet it can grow up to two times the size. It is also hardier and has a more aggressive growth habit. With a yellow skin and a white, almost translucent flesh, the Palora Yellow dragonfruit boasts a sweet flavor with crunchy seeds. And its tasty fruit is not its only attractive feature - at night, the flowers bloom in full and give off a sweet scent.
