Unripe pitaya, or does the green skin color belong to the variety?
This is of course very important! An unripe green dragon fruit which should eventually not have a green outside color will complement very firm if not yet ripe. It is best to leave these for a few days to mature and to see if the color still changes. Push carefully with your thumb on the dragon fruit. The peel should feel soft, but not too mushy. If you have this, congratulations, your dragon fruit is ripe! If the greenish color still exists after that feeling, you have a green dragon fruit variety. Make sure not to leave your dragon fruit for too long (or without checking regularly) as the fruit can also be overripe after time. If the skin is very pulpy, the fruit is most likely overripe.
