This amazing passion flower not only produces deliciously sweet fruit, it also has the attractive frilly-edged flowers passifloras are known for. Panama Red is an incredibly vigorous and delicious variety of passion fruit! Fruits are large with a bright purplish red skin and tons of tasty tangy pulp inside. Its striking fringed flowers light up the garden while drawing in bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, and the round, aromatic fruits split naturally when perfectly ripe. Needs support such as a trellis or stake. With a little encouragement, it makes a fine hanging basket. Periodically wrap the wandering vines around the basket and in one to two years fruit will be dangling from the dark green leaves. Give full sun for best performance. Self-pollinating. Zones 9-11.
