Description

The classic Purple Passion Fruit is the quintessential variety for intense, aromatic flavor. Its smaller, deep purple fruits pack a powerful punch of tart, tropical sweetness that is the hallmark of premium passion fruit juice and desserts. A must-have for passionate growers in the warmest Bay Area locations who crave authentic, bold flavor.

• Produces abundant, smaller, round fruits with a smooth, deep purple (almost maroon) skin when fully ripe.

• Flesh is intensely aromatic, tart, and vibrantly orange, encapsulating numerous edible black seeds—the source of its signature crunch.

• Flavor is rich, complex, and more acidic than the yellow variety, delivering the classic passion fruit tang that is highly prized for culinary use.

• A vigorous, self-pollinating, semi-evergreen vine that grows rapidly on a support structure, providing dense coverage and exotic beauty.

• Features the same spectacular, otherworldly flowers in shades of purple and white with a intricate corona.

• Requires a warm, frost-free position and is ideal for container growing in cooler parts of the Bay Area, allowing it to be moved to shelter in winter.
