Passion fruit is a perennial, evergreen vining plant in tropical regions. It can grow to 30 or 40 feet high and nearly as wide. It is widely grown in tropical and semitropical regions of the world. In the United States, the plants are grown mostly in Florida, Hawaii, and California. Passion fruit can be grown indoors in more temperate climates of North America.

Passion fruit plants have showy flowers 2 to 3 inches (5-8 cm) across with five greenish-white sepals surround by five white petals and a fringelike corona of white-tipped rays emerging from a rich purple base. The leaves are glossy green with three lobes and serrated edges. Small tendrils allow passion fruit to climb vigorously.

Purple passion fruit is oval, egg-shaped, and 2 to 5 inches in diameter; ripe passion fruit has purple to reddish-purple skin when ripe. The rind is inedible. The yellow-orange pulp surrounds small black seeds. The seeds are edible but are usually removed before eating

Gardening for happiness!
