Flying Dragon Fruit....Tasty Only To Dragons

My tree has long sharp thorns but not the huge curved claw-like thorns of others I have seen. Perhaps as it ages it will develop those monsters. I grow this as a novelty and the fruit is not edible; it is as bitter as gall. If I ever have a burglar, I do hope he falls into this vicious tree because he will learn crime doesn't pay and he will not come here again.
