Frederick’s Purple Passion Fruit (Passiflora edulis)

“The Money Maker” This vigorous self-fruitful vine will quickly cover a chain link fence or trellis. It does well in the ground or a pot and tends to do well in areas that have climates similar to the bay area. The flower is whimsical and intricate such a beauty and has an unworldly look to it like no other flower I’ve seen. The fruit is delicious and rich in vitamin C, B-vitamin, iron, and phosphorous. Known to be great for smoothies, shaved ice, agua frescas, ice cream, preserves, pastries, syrups, etc. Excellent to be eaten fresh, with a sprinkle of chile powder, salt, and lime (Tajin). Plus the market value people will pay for passion fruit is around $15 per pound!  Self Fertile
