Passiflora edulis ‘Possum Purple’

Description

This amazing passion flower not only produces deliciously sweet fruit, it also has the attractive frilly-edged flowers passifloras are known for. Purple Possum is a strong vigorous grower, especially during the summer months, and 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 no time fruit will be dangling from the dark green leaves. Give full sun for best performance. Self-pollinating.
