Passion fruit!!! It's so easy to grow - in Australia :) I have tried to grow it in Japan, but with no success. Glad I have it in my garden now. It's so delightful to see it growing everyday, and I wanted to share the pictures with you.

Yes, they are beautiful, and I love juice and mousse made with passion fruit. They dont look like an apple, it has seeds inside. Sorry, I'm not an expert in that plant :(
Barbara, check out this website about passionfruits.

Yoriko, did you know that the Passionfruit flower got its name from its similarity to the crown of thorns?
I
t resembles the crown of thorns on Christ's head when he died.
The fruit is absolutely delicious very pulpy and semi sweet/tarty. Great on pavlovas, on top of cheesecakes and also with icecream! Delicious, one of my favourites. I am green with envy that you have such a beautiful vine!

It's interesting that the soil in my place is mixed with sand, so I think it's fenomenal that it is growing beautifully! Thank you, Carolyn!

Wow!!! Yoriko, hasn't your passionfruit grown. and yes, the flowers are just beautiful, I used to eat them straight from the vine when I was young. And have you seen the yellow one, not as nice to eat I don't think, Thanks for the lovely photo, Also if you have too many you can freeze the pulp in ice cube trays and then use the frozen pulp in your drinks

I plan on freezing the pulp to make juice. :) Thank you, Sheryl!

Fantastic, I have 2 vines I get the fruit on then the frost comes and kills them all, that is a shame for me..We also love the fruit and buy them often just to cut up and eat..I think we are spoilt here in Australia with so much wonderful fruit. The flower always amazes me it is so very pretty, our Creator is extremely creative....
