The first fruit had a Brix rating of 18.5 to 22, The flavor has a soft sweetness and lemony aftertaste. It reminded of a mild pink lemonade, that is quite refreshing on a hot summer day. The outside skin of the fruit is a thick soft pink color with yellowfins when fully ripe. At the base of the fruit long thorns are usually present and this is likely from the Hylocereus megalanthus in the cross. The flesh is pure white with small crunchy seeds. Flower bud to flower took 23 days and from flower to fruit took an additional 60 days. This process started in the summer and continued into the fall months.
