Is that just a small fruit or is the rind very thick?

My Frederick has quite a bit of large fruit on it and has started a second bloom.

I've made tea from P. incarnata three times in the last two weeks. The tea is actually very nice if the leaves are allowed to dry for a few days before brewing. My first brew was made with fresh leaves, stems, flowers, and buds and was okay. The second brew was dried first and had a rich flavor. This tea really helped me to calm down, and I got a great sleep from it, but I didn't fall asleep any earlier than normal.

Passiflora phoenicea 'Ruby Glow' Fruit. I cross pollinated this with another Passiflora.There are two of these plants in my area.Every year they get a couple fruit.I've been hand pollinating them and now have ten fruit growing.





More cross pollination results

I counted at least 38 new flowers which opened today. I saw this flower being worked over by a honeybee. I don't know if the bee was actually getting pollen to the stigma and being an effective pollinator, but it did have quite a bit of pollen on it's back and that's a good sign.
I counted over 100 flowers one day a month or so ago. It's on a second wave of flowering now. It's hard to see the fruits buried under the leaves but I would guess I've got 50-100 fruits.
