Passions fruits are expensive here, so I bought myself a passion fruit vine and left in in my garden not expecting it to do much this year. The vine I bought was less than a feet in height . The plant didn’t show much promise at first, but after a month of adjusting to the weather here it started to grow and it soon out grew the container in which it was kept. I decided to re-pot the vine into a bigger container a couple of months ago. Now it has a couple of flowers and a number of buds which may or may not translate into fruits this year.
However, I am keeping my hopes up as I have seen a number of bees hanging around the flowers when they bloomed. I am happy enough to take pictures for now and hope for the fruits to show up. Very few things give me as much happiness as eating the fruits /veggies from my garden. I will be fine with waiting for another year and for the vine to establish itself well. I am in no major hurry. The excitement of seeing the first two flowers has been enough for me.

Such a versatile fruit you can actually make so many things with it. only the cost hinders me from doing so.
I love these flowers! I don’t think they would like the climate here, but I have seen them at the seaside.
Yeah I have heard this from the others too, maybe it doesn’t like cooler weather.
I hope to take a picture of the passion flower tomorrow when I leave work. I know where he is. She is very beautiful.
Waiting to see your. sadly these are beyond my parapet walls.
Every year I plan to buy one of these beauties. Maybe next year.
don’t you still have time for it?
i love passion fruit. what a beautiful flower!
The flavor is amazing, and so is the flower, be it the wild or the cultivated ones.
i have eaten the fruit many times, i had never seen the flower!

in the US fresh tropical fruit is way to pensive. So we get drinks or easily transported versions of the fruit.
I miss the fruit of the tropics.
