Yes, the fruit of the night-blooming cereus cactus, also known as pitaya or dragon fruit, is edible and considered tasty. It has a mildly sweet flavor and a unique texture, often described as a combination of kiwi and pear. However, it's essential to ensure that the fruit is ripe and properly prepared before eating. Always be cautious and consult reliable sources if you're unsure about foraging or consuming unfamiliar plants.

Cactus flowers tend not to be long blooming. Some cactus plants have night flowering blooms. Others have day flowering blossoms. Either way, the flowers need to be pollinated.
