Hi,

There are 2 different "Pitayas".
The red fruit comes from Hylocereus Undatus.
The plant are often used as a grafting stock.
The Yellow fruit comes from Selenicerus Megalanthus.
Maybe some of those plants are the one you have.

:? I have been raising and around cacti all my life and now I am being told that they harm people if they are kept as houseplants. Is this true at all? Maxwell Yes its true! When you get your first Cacti plant the disease starts. Then you want one more, and one more, and.....After awhile you get to...

I think that you can find some info here on CactiGuide. You can also try http://www.desert-tropicals.com.

Hi David,

The first one is a Cereus tetragonus(monstrose) Please remove those yellow paper flowers
The second is a African succulent Pachypodium Lamerei.
And the last one is a Austrocylindropuntia subulata -some monstrose variant.
