My passion-fruit vine has been flowering since December. I am so proud. It has been growing for 3 years now and this is my first season of flowers and fruit. These gorgeous flowers have a strong, sweet musky scent and the fruit is huge, purple and full of deliciously fragrant pulp. I wish I could share. The hardest thing now is waiting for the fruit to ripen! Also waiting to beable to have my favourite concoction – frozen passionfruit pulp and vodka! Yum!

Beautiful picture and wonderful fruit. I have passion fruit vines growing wild in my backyard and love to watch the flowers and then the fruit develop. However the squirrels seem to frequently get the fruit once it actually ripens before I do. Will the fruits ripen after being picked?

Beautiful! I had never seen a photo of a passion fruit flower or a real one.

Great flower! The passionfruit is also quite lovely mixed with rum. Orange flavored rum does a nice mix, too.
