It's lovely , I don't do tender anymore , I bought an unusual one with red flowers it didn't last 2 mins , i'd rather buy something to last !

It has to be done at some time though, even if only to say "I tried"!

Meanie:

I like this Passion Fruit vine. The flowers are huge and the fruit is very large for a passion fruit. We're lucky here in San Diego this vine grows very fast and produces many fruits (like all the other varieties/species).

It will flower and fruit prodigiously in this location Delonix!

Meanie:

Most fruiting species of Passiflora are extremely fast growers. They produce such copious amounts of fruits, it's not funny!
