in which month the fruit grows

[epimaniacal]

It depends on the plant and when it should flower. Usually in the fall is when the fruit ripens, but I have had several from other plants in other times of the year, depending on the flowering stage. You can usually gauge that you should get a fruit three months from the flower stage, give or take a month. :D

these fruits looks like dragon fruits. my mom has a dragon fruit plant but they are much bigger. can you please tell me if all orchid catus have edible fruits?

[epimaniacal]

You know, I do believe so but am not sure if ALL epiphyllum have edible seed pods.

You are right however about them looking like Dragon fruit, for essentially that is what they are. They even have different tastes and textures depending on what you have. :)

Not a greenhouse. It is an area that is for cactus that is termed a cold-room.
