Passionflower 'Giant Granadilla' (Passiflora quadrangularis)

Passiflora quadrangularis, commonly known as Giant Granadilla, bears the largest fruit in the Passiflora genus. The fruit is edible, often eaten raw when ripe, cooked, or made into drinks. Immature fruits are used as a vegetable. The fruits are greenish yellow and comprised with black seeds. Roots of old plants are baked or roasted. In addition to the wonderfully sweet fruit, Giant Granadilla has scented purple flowers, characterized with white dots in the center. Requires a humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil and a position in dappled shade where it can grow up towards the sun. Photo courtesy of Wikipedia.
