The passionfruit we planted some time ago has really been producing for us. Cant say Ive seen fruit this large before. Pretty stoked.

If our came to only half of that size I will be happy. Good job.

That is some impressive passion fruit. Are they just out of the soil, no AP?

How is your system plan coming along? I miss your toes my friend.

Martin.

Those are huge Charlie :thumbright:

. Is that a named variety?

Charlie

Thanks guys, they were grown from seed from the largest fruit from my father in laws plant, I believe they are a panama variety. I have a yellow variety too which is starting to fruit but not quite there yet to try. I actually thought that they may turn out to be all skin and no pulp but much to my amazement every fruit so far is absolutely stuffed. 1 fruit fills half an average glass, pretty cool. Also very tasty. Soil grown Martin.

AP plans still taking their sweet time, Im blaming the new bub at the moment but I Im getting close. Enjoying dirt gardening for the moment, we have a bumper crop of pumpkins thats been impressive and Ive started our fruit orchard, which currently has a pecan tree, blood orange, avocado, mandarin, red apple, green apple, mango, navel orange, bush lemon and nectarine with plans to add many many more. Ill take some pics when the rain buggers off.

Dis you graft the vine or juat grown straight from seed?

Charlie

Straight from seed signore, it had been growing in a pot for maybe a year or two and been in the ground for over a year at my place.
