Definitely dragon fruit going in this year - I've been saying it for months now, but I still believe it

I have a vanilla orchid going,Im a little not wet and tropical enough.
They look green and healthy during the wet season then get daggy and yellow looking during the dry.
So its struggling but still alive after 2 years.
Bought 2, 1 died.

As for Dragon fruit,my dad has a few growing in Melbourne,but he has never had fruit,he has had flowers.Maybe its too cold for the pollinator??
I don't mind the taste and the look is pretty good ,the plant is ugly but.
I heard if you eat a few make sure your near a loo.

Can someone post a pic of a mature plant please, I have two plants that flower but nothing eventuates.
One is possibly a moon flower but the other has different shaped leaves, maybe all i need to do is hand pollinate the little sucker

Heres a close up of a leaf gnash, not the best for ID but ok, they are 3 sided [pic only shows 2,] and those little spikes are horrendous

A bit late...but thankyou bushy....both the plants I have are not 3 sectioned leaves so moon flower only.
If anyone has a section of plant they could spare I'd be willing to come grab it next I'm going to perth etc
