A native passionfruit (forum)
1 responses
May Johansson starts with ...
Please halp me to identify a native passionfruit which was given to me by an "old bushie" many years ago. It had vivid green fruit -never changed colour on ripening--vigorous grower--liked to grow up tall trees (never caused harm to them)--prolific bearer--never needed manual pollination--never needed pruning after fruiting (I couldn't climb up our tall tree)
The fruit was sweet but with a sour lemony tang to it.
I hope that this is enough information to get the botanical name and where such a plant can be obtained.
Many thanks May
PS It was not a grafted plant.It was indiginous and so liked the conditions in my Brisbane garden.

Would it be P. cinnabarina? Has variously been decribed as edible, unpalatable. Flowers are reddish in colour.
