I am planning to post an update! We've had Real Life things going on this year, but I do need to catch up with progress and New projects. lol Both Passiflora species are doing OK this year -- our on-and-off drought situation has been challenging for all plants, but we will get fruit from both. 😎 I hope your 2024 has been fruitful, so far!

@@JustWestie praying you all obstacles in your wave are lifted! Never let this world dim your light! Can’t wait for the update! Bless you!

I think they are - that was suggested by another viewer! The scent is a really amazing match to the beauty of their appearance. The vines are slow to appear this year, but they are spreading. lol

Thanks so much! =))

Hope everything is going good! Can’t wait to see your Passiflora journey again this year. I’m going to try and cross my banana passion fruit vine with my incarnata and incense. Wish me luck lol

It is a very strong family of plants!

In English, this plant is called "Maypop". It is a cold hardy (native) type of Passionflower. Do you have Passionflower vines in Vietnam?

The pulp had a very light yellow cast. Our weather was soooo dry all last year, I'm hoping to find a better-developed pulp (and fruit bodies) this year. We're still about 2 months from them reappearing in the yard, so work in progress... =)) (I did save some seeds, but so far, no germination, but the house may still be too cool.) I'm sure hybrids abound anywhere they are grown, which, along with the wild populations, would explain the variability. Photos of P. incense do indeed jive with our blossoms' appearance! Very cool.

@@JustWestie can’t wait to follow your journey! I’m obsessed with these plants especially when these plants grow natively! Prices for Passionfruit are INSANE!

I hope my vines return! The sterile Cerulea had not even died in the cold, but it has no food value, obvs. Although pricing would be an experiment in madness, no doubt, none of the varieties of fruit are available for sale in stores here. I did love the flavor, and it made a nice boost to some apple and pear cores that I saved up for jam. I am considering growing some less hardy P. varieties in the garden this year, and then keeping cuttings over winter. We'll see what unfolds... 😎

Also your leaves have five lobes which is a common trait of the incense variety instead of three which is common with the maypop variety. I wonder what the taste is like because the hybrids that do fruit have been known to be bland and less seeds on the inside unfortunately.

Thanks for this info - very helpful in my attempt to definitively identify this variety. =))

You're so sweet to drop by! =)) I love your fun, personal style at L&L. We're about a fifth of an acre in total, including the house, etc., and a lot of "microclimates" - a lot of possibilities. A new property can feel bare, but you can throw anything in and dream big! xox

How wonderful! I'll be sending you good wishes. I know you will enjoy your experience with this plant. Thank you for your visit! 😎

My pleasure! Thanks for stopping by. =))

The seeds are inside the fruit...they start out white, then mature to black when the fruit is ripe! We hope to see some this year and will be sure to update; subscribe to follow along. Thanks for your question - have a great day!
