Good project, Tony. There are some extra tasty ones out there. I have a red-fruited one that is (perhaps) a hybrid between our Honolulu yellow and purple varieties. My former red one was from Oka nursery, said to be a hybrid, it died, then later I found this new red one in a backyard and the owner did not know the source. Seems the same, great flavor, etc. A seedling from it had fruit that was 90% yel, 10% red, at least the one fruit I saw.
I have a cutting from the main red one, holler if you want me to make one for you.
No cold testing or natural selection for that. Ray

Gorgeous! If you could successfully get some that taste great and are hardy to to even the 20's I'd love to get some seeds. I'm just growing P. incarnata outside, but it's warm enough that I could easily grow some hybrids that can handle the 20's. Otherwise I plan for the rest of my future Passiflora to hang out in the greenhouses.

P.incarnata is the best there is that will take 20's. Some incarnata are better than others

Oh I know, it can take lower zones than I could even imagine living in. I'd just like to think it is possible to cross a P. edulis with the superhardy P. incarnata for a fun yet still hardy or semi-hardy Passiflora.

The parentage on the ones of interest,because they're edible. P.edulis x P.incarnata and P.edulis x P.alata. No special plans it's just something I enjoy.

So... do you sow seed of your hybrids to look for segregates with nice qualities? Do you get enough fertility in the hybrids to do this?

shannon that's kind of what I do but I just grow out all the plants.Next year I will start being more selective with the seedlings and only keep the more promising ones. As far as fertility I have a ridiculous amount of viable seed.

Thanks for this... I'm trying to do edulis hybrids with such oddities as P. serrato-digitata and such; adding full tropical tolerance plus self-compatibility for easier acceptance by smallholder peasant farmers.
And, BTW, your approach is just what I'm also doing with bananas!!!

I have a few regular passionflower vines. One is red and one is regular blue-purple. I don't know diddly about them other than they're vines and have pretty flowers. Eventually they will overhang my enclosed seating area in the backyard, along with trumpet flower vine and morning glories(if I ever get those planted).

Sims, 1818
Passiflora edulis is a vine species of passion flower that is native to Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay and northern Argentina (Corrientes and Misiones provinces, among others). Its common names include passion fruit (US), passionfruit (UK and Commonwealth), and purple granadilla (South Africa).
It is cultivated commercially in warmer, frost-free areas for its fruit and is widely grown in Antigua, Argentina, Australia, Bolivia, Brazil, the Caribbean, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, East Africa, Ecuador, Haiti, Honduras, India, Indonesia, Israel, Mexico, New Zealand, Panama, Peru, Portugal (Madeira), Puerto Rico, Sri Lanka, South Africa, United States (California, Florida, Hawaii), Venezuela, Philippines, Malaysia.
The passion fruit is round to oval, either yellow or dark purple at maturity, with a soft to firm, juicy interior filled with numerous seeds.[1] The fruit is both eaten and juiced; passion fruit juice is often added to other fruit juices to enhance the aroma.[2]

Varieties[edit]
Several distinct varieties of passion fruit with clearly differing exterior appearances exist. The bright yellow flavicarpa variety, also known as the Golden Passion Fruit, can grow up to the size of a grapefruit, has a smooth, glossy, light and airy rind, and has been used as a rootstock for the Purple Passion Fruit in Australia.[3] The dark purple edulis variety is smaller than a lemon, though it is less acidic than the yellow passion fruit, and has a richer aroma and flavour.
The purple varieties of the fruit have been found to contain traces of cyanogenic glycosides in the skin.[4]

In Australia and New Zealand, where it is called "passionfruit", it is available commercially both fresh and tinned. It is added to fruit salads, and fresh fruit pulp or passion fruit sauce is commonly used in desserts, including as a topping for pavlova (a regional meringue cake) and ice cream, a flavouring for cheesecake, and in the icing of vanilla slices. A passionfruit-flavoured soft drink called Passiona has also been manufactured in Australia since the 1920s.
In Brazil, the term maracujá applies to passion fruit (maracujá azedo, or "sour") and granadillo (maracujá doce, or "sweet"). Passion fruit mousse is a common dessert, and passion fruit pulp is routinely used to decorate the tops of cakes. Passion fruit juice, ice pops and more recently soft drinks are also very popular. When making caipirinha, it is usual to use passion fruit instead of lime; it is then called maracujá. It is used also as a mild sedative, and its active ingredient is commercialized under several brands, most notably Maracugina.
In Colombia, it is one of the most important fruits, especially for juices and desserts. It is widely available all over the country and three kinds of "maracuyá" fruit may be found.
In the Dominican Republic, where it is locally called chinola, it is used to make juice and Fruit preserves. Passion fruit-flavoured syrup is used on shaved ice, and the fruit is also eaten raw, sprinkled with sugar.
In Indonesia, there are two types of passionfruit (local name: markisa), white flesh and yellow flesh. The white one is normally eaten straight as a fruit, while the yellow variety is commonly strained to obtain its juice, which is cooked with sugar to make thick syrup. Bottles or plastic jugs of concentrated syrup (generally produced in Sumatra from fruit grown in the Lake Toba region[citation needed]) are sold in many supermarkets. Dilution of one part syrup to four (or more) parts water is recommended.
In Israel, passion fruit is used to make fruit wine.[citation needed]
In Mexico, passion fruit is used to make juice or is eaten raw with chilli powder and lime.
In Paraguay, passion fruit is used principally for its juice, to prepare desserts such as passion fruit mousse, cheesecake, ice cream, and to flavour yogurts and cocktails.
In Peru, passion fruit is used in several desserts, especially cheesecakes. Passion fruit juice is also drunk on its own and is used in ceviche variations and in cocktails, including the Maracuyá Sour, a variation of the Pisco Sour.
In the Philippines, passion fruit is commonly sold in public markets and in public schools. Some vendors sell the fruit with a straw to enable sucking out the seeds and juices inside. It is not very popular because of its sour flavour, and the fruit is very seasonal.
In Portugal, especially the Azores and Madeira, passion fruit is used as a base for a variety of liqueurs and mousses.
In Puerto Rico, where the fruit is known as "parcha", it is widely believed to lower blood pressure,[5] probably because it contains harmala alkaloids and is a mild RIMA.[citation needed] Passion fruit juice is also very common there and is used in juices, ice cream or pastries.
In South Africa, passion fruit, known locally as Granadilla (the yellow variety as Guavadilla), is used to flavour yogurt. It is also used to flavour soft drinks such as Schweppes' "Sparkling Granadilla" and numerous cordial drinks. It is often eaten raw or used as a topping for cakes and tarts. Granadilla juice is commonly available in restaurants. The yellow variety is used for juice processing, while the purple variety is sold in fresh-fruit markets.
In Sri Lanka, passion fruit juice, along with faluda, is one of the most popular refreshments. Passion fruit cordial is manufactured both at home as well as industrially by mixing the pulp with sugar. There are many cordial manufacturers, suppliers and exporters in the country.[6]
In Thailand, passion fruit is called "saowarot" (Thai: เสาวรส). The fruit is eaten whole and is also commonly juiced and drunk. Young shoots are cooked in curries or eaten with nam phrik.[citation needed]
In the United States, it is often used as an ingredient in alcoholic beverages[7][8] and juice mixes. In Hawaii, passion fruit is called lilikoi and comes in yellow and purple varieties.
Passion fruit can be cut in half and the seeds scooped out with a spoon. Lilikoi-flavoured syrup is a popular topping for shave ice. It is used as a dessert flavouring for malasadas, cheesecakes, cookies, ice cream and mochi. Passion fruit is also favoured as a jam or jelly, as well as a butter. Lilikoi syrup can also be used to glaze or marinade meat and vegetables.[9] Most passion fruit comes from backyard gardens or is collected from the wild. While it may be found at farmers' markets throughout the islands, fruits are seldom sold in grocery stores.
In Vietnam, passion fruit is blended with honey and ice to create refreshing smoothies.
In Cambodia, passion fruit is called "machu bey-darch", and the plant vine grows in the wild. Bushes hang with green to yellow round fruits, measuring from 2.5 cm to 4 cm when ripe. This wild variety of passion fruit tastes slightly different but is still quite sour.
In India, the government of Andhra Pradesh started growing passion fruits in the Chintapalli (Vizag) region forests to make them available to the local people. The fruit is found in the jungles of Assam and is known to local people as "lota bel".
In Costa Rica, it is known as "Estococa". The fruit grows in the wild and it is commonly used for juice. It is considerably smaller than the Maracuyá.
Nutrition[edit]
Fresh passion fruit contains provitamin A beta carotene, vitamin C (36%), dietary fiber (42%) and iron (12%) in significant quantities as percent of the Daily Value; the vitamin A content converted from provitamin A sources is 25%.[10] Passion fruit juice is a good source of potassium, possibly making the fruit relevant as a nutrient source for lowering risk of high blood pressure.[11] Preliminary research indicated that consuming passion fruit peel may relieve asthma symptoms.[12] One report showed that the fruit pericarp contains lycopene.[13]
Culture[edit]
Passion fruit flower - the national flower of Paraguay
The Passion fruit is so called because it is one of the many species of Passion Flower. ("Passion Flower" being the literal English translation of the Latin genus name, Passiflora). The name was given by Spanish missionaries to South America as an expository aid while trying to convert the indigenous inhabitants to Christianity.
The flower of the passion fruit is the national flower of Paraguay.[citation needed]

Passiflora ...
There are other edible species of passiflora, sometimes called by the synonyms listed in the Wikipedia article. For example, P. quadrangularis.

So, what's the hardiness of these vines? Can you container-ranch them and bring them in over the winter? How long from bloom to fruit?
Of "these vines", there are different species and cultivars. Many perish below 40F. The species P. edulis and its cultivars will generally tolerate a few hours of 30F to 35F perhaps a dozen nights per year. The P. edulis cultivar "Frederick" will tolerate adventures to the high 20's (F) but with the same same frequency and duration. Also, Frederick produces better fruit. It is propagated by cuttings.
Some Passiflora species and their cultivars produce edible fruit, while others produce a fruit but with no pulp and in some cases no seeds. If you are considering obtaining a Passiflora for fruit, check to make sure it is edible.
In warm weather, the time from bloom to fruit is 1-2 months. Most of the species and cultivars are everbearing; i.e., you get fruit multiple times per year. In fact they are known for too much fruit.
Another trait of Passiflora is that they grow to great lengths. In zone 10b and up, a single plant can span a 100 foot long fence in 3 years and completely cover it in multiple layers of vines in 5 years. At the base the trunk will be 3" to 5" in diameter. Thus growing it in a container for ferrying indoors and outdoors is a challenge in containment.
I suppose you could try growing P. edulis as an annual: starting from seed in the winter, planting it out in the late spring and hope for fruit before Fall.

Passiflora edulis is the main ingredient in the product "Hawaiian Punch" although with a lot of sugar added. The cultivar Fredericks is widely available and superior to the generic species. It is hardy in 9b.

My vines have grown like gangbusters and are up over the top of the wired enclosure. Not tons of blooms, but some both the red and the purple. Really pretty!

Passiflora Incarnata grows wild in the ditch in front of my house, looking at these makes me want to go get a cutting of one and put it in a pot on the front porch.
