Can I suggest that you submit your question to the Daleys Fruit Tree Forum -> Click Here
If you can give a picture of your passionfruit vine and perhaps your flowers as well.
An idea off the top of my head is that you may have a pollination problem. But would be great to know more details. However I would wait a bit longer then a few weeks for the passionfruit to start forming.

Bill this is quite normal. What happens is the passionfruit overcompensate it's ability to carry all the fruit.
It is good to keep the water up to it and what I do is the ones that are shriveling up I pick off and throw away that way the vine can put more energy into the ones it is choosing to carry through to copmletion.

Another thing I heard was if you can open up the passionfruit and see if there are any seeds inside.
If there are none then you have a pollination issue.

Thanks for the response. I opened one of the first one's to set, but there
was only white fluffy stuff inside. There are insects and bees on them, but
if I take pollen from one and spread it on the stamen of another that should
do it?

can anyone tell me if it is possible to ripen fruit that has already come off the vine, they still have the immediate stalk attached but we needed to take the fence down that the passionfruit vine was growing on and was hoping they might still ripen off the vine, the fruit is very large and fully grown in size but still yellow/green.thanks

We have a very healthy passion fruit vine (Port Macquarie NSW) and it has been suggested that you wait for the ripened fruit to drop to the ground rather than picking from the vine.
Comments would be appreciated.
Thanks, Brian

Can you grow a passion fruit in a pot?

I am prety sure that you can grow them in pots. Here is a blog entry where someone was growing them in big containers.

Hello
I have a vine that is 6 months old and grew beautifully and quickly - had flowers but no fruit. It now seems to be shedding its leaves starting at the stem. The first 2 meters of the vine are now bare and it seems to be spreading across the vine. The far end of the vine is still growing well and looks healthy. What is going on??
