Assuming these fruits were not native to SoCal, how did they get the plants/seedlings there? Under the table? I think it would be very difficult to bring Vietnamese flora into the USA through legitimate channels.
- tathougies 8y agoThe fruit I was talking about is dragon fruit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitaya https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitaya Which, while popular and does incredibly well in Asia, is also apparently native to the Americas up to Mexico, so it wouldn't be a far leap to grow it in SoCal But I mean, as someone whose family is from Asia, it is not particularly difficult to sneak things in to the United States.
