My Edibles: Passionfruit Vines QLD

Passionfruit - Panama Gold (Seedling)

Comments: -

I used to grow this variety previously - tastes fantastic! Opted for seedling - technically a graft should be superior, but my previous vine fruited abundantly for 10 years (until drought killed it) and it was a seedling too.

Planted: 2012

Growing: In a Pot

Passionfruit - Panama Red (Seedling)

Comments: -

I bought this as both a comparison to Panama Gold for taste, and aesthetics, (should be attractive as the two plants will inter-mingle).

Comments

Can you tell me what your cross pollinator is? Coralie

Hi Coralie, I have Lilikoi, Red and also Yellow Panama. As I do not pollinate by hand, I can't really tell you, but I suspect you may be able to self pollinate it with a small camel hair brush.

Hi Again, Yes we have been hand pollinating - but it hasnt worked at all. keen to try lilikoi, so this just gives me an excuse.. Coralie

I tried pollinating by hand from Lilikoi in teh second year of the Granadilla, but it didn't work. However I suspect the age and size of the Granadilla may play a part, I have three Granadilla planted in close proximity (ca. 2 metres).

Passionfruit - Panama Gold Grafted (Grafted) ^7/10

Comments: -

We ate these as kids they grew everywear. I am stuggling to get this one to take off. It should be fruiting this year but I think it will be another year yet. The black are more hardy but these taste sweeter. If it ever fruits I will try to grow some seedlings and see if they are stronger.

My sister grows these in terrible sandy soil near the coast very successfully so I will try again!
