Description

The listing, Passionfruit Vine Seeds has ended.

Passion fruit is an evergreen, flowering vine from Brazil that climbs by tendrils (Fig. 1). Its height and spread varies depending on the structure it climbs on. The flower is a nice purple and white and generally reaches a width of 3 to 5 inches. Each unique flower lasts about one day, appearing in the summer and early fall. The showy fruit grows 2 ½ to 3 inches long and is edible and often used in juices. It is quite tasty and is occasionally served fresh. The evergreen leaves are deeply cut into three lobes with entire margins.

It says this is hardy from zones 9 -11 but mine grows perfectly in zone 6b (Northeast TN) The flowers are beautiful and the fruit tastes great. It's perfect to add to smoothies.

This will include 10 seeds.

I live in Northeast TN, too, just off I-81 at mile marker 36 (Baileyton/Greeneville). Do you cut the vine back every year and mulch or what. If I win this auction, I will need more information on how to winter them over.

You aren't far from me at all I live right off exit 66... Actually the vine is winter hardy left alone in this area.. It always comes back each summer on it's own with flowers and fruit. I didn't know what it was the first 3 years I lived here. I never noticed the flowers since they are short lived, I only thought they were odd plants with green puffy egg like things. 2 years ago I noticed the flowers and finally was able to name them and realized they were edible, and that the leaves make an awesome tea... They were planted by my boyfriends mom 10 years ago and are still strong growing and healthy...
