Sounds like a winner! The mini watermelon looking fruit is neat. I imagine it adds a decorative touch after blooms end. One of the many passion fruit plants I plan on getting when I can convince my mother that they are delicious. Still starting out with annonaceae and myrtaceae families first…along with store fruits…I did finally make a purchase a couple weeks ago. Still waiting on fulfillment. But super stoked! Starting my list for my next purchase early, since I take so long to decide…
Oh, that’s awesome. You cannot go wrong with annona and any myrtaceae. Which ones did you order that still have to be fulfilled? And I have to admit I do love the mini watermelon look of this ones :-) plus the red flowers are showstoppers
@@FancyPlants went with Bellamy trees this time. Tried Anderson tropicals before trying to get some cool annona and diguetia, but non of them germinated. I was forced to abandon them cause fungus gnats took hold, but my mom was growing some sweet pea tree cuttings in the old cups and apparently didn’t change the soil at all… about a week or 2 in, 2 of my soursop seeds I gave up on came up after being dried out for 6 months or so…so I figured I’d try the old seeds from Anderson again too, just in case…
My vitifolia blooms and fruits year-round here in South Florida. The fruits smell very nice once fully ripe but I've never actually tried them. I will have to after seeing this video.
I forget if it’s latifolia or laurifolia but they truly taste like coconut water in the best way possible. Foetida does too. I’m horrible with billing names so I may have gotten those wrong but I know it’s close.
I have a small vine of vitifolia that fell off my table in a pot and I didnt see it and I thought it died. I have nursed it back to health and it is growing new green vines. I hope to get flowers next year. I also have passiflora phoenecia "ruby glow" and I hand pollinate it using caerulea as well. I am not a huge fan of the fruit. I am going to try it again this year. I have passiflora decaisneana blooming and I am testing self pollination and pollination using caerulea. I am curious to how that fruit comapres to phoenecia. Lastly, I hand pollinated passiflora etna with caerulea and while it set fruit, I did not like it one bit. I love trying out new types. I see you are wearing a California shirt. I am in SoCal zone 10b trying out over 15 types of passiflora :)
Oh, that is so cool. What area since it zone 10b? I’m in 10a so I have a little bit less or fewer options. What’s your favorite tasting one then? So far mine has been Passiflora laurifolia or however, you spell it, it reminds me of sweet coconut water. I can usually only get it when I’m in Hawaii and I wish I could grow out here but of course I haven’t been able to, but I heard that P feotida or how do you spell that one also taste like coconut so I’m looking forward to tasting those. Would love to buy seeds for me of ones that you really like the taste of. Glad you’re able to get the vitifolia back up and growing
@@FancyPlants SoCal Coast, southern Orange County. I hate to be boring, but the best is the standard Frederick. I also have an edulis var flavicarpa that is putting our HUGE mango sized fruit. Its the yellow variety from Hawaii. Those were a little more tart last year, but Im waiting to see how they are. I actually have quite a few laurifolia vines I grew from seeds bought from a Maui seed company. One looks like it will be flowering soon which is exciting! I have one sold to me as serrulata but from what I understand, those are extinct. Its probably a malformis or platyloba. That did flower and I set fruit with Caerulea. I am excited about that. I have been waiting over 5 years for my lingularis to flower. I have two grown from seeds. They look correct vine and leaf wise. Im hoping maybe soon.
@@jasonjennings6686 you’re growing some great ones that’s for sure. So cool those will all grow for you down there. I have successfully grown and fruited ligularis here but that’s one that definitely is taste dependent on climate so unless you have the right climate, it doesn’t quite taste like it does in Hawaii or Costa Rica or any of those places. And sometimes boring is OK as long as it’s the best or maybe it’s boring because it is the best?You know what I mean
OK, I did! I had hit and miss results. Some fresh off the vine were insipid and not that great. In fact more of them than not. But I did have one straight off the vine that wasn’t wrinkled. That was really good.
Lovely
I love how they look!
😍

@@FancyPlants yeah. That’s one of the prettiest passionflowers I’ve seen. As far as what I grabbed, I think it’s a pretty solid list…waiting on: Plinia sp pérola negra 01, plinia sp alto paraíso, plinia sp ruby honey, duguetia magnolioidea, duguetia cauliflora, annona marítima, annona salzmannii, annona spraguei, annona spinescens, annona xylopiifolia, annona punicifolia, annona sp mini Columbia, psidium longipetiolatum, psidium decussatum, psidium nutans, psidium sorocabense, psidium spp do rio, Eugenia punicifolia, Eugenia klenii, Eugenia conchalensis, Eugenia schottiana, Eugenia neotristis, Eugenia sp uvitas, Eugenia sp cereja paulista, Eugenia sp Violeta, Eugenia oblongata, myrciaria glomerata.
I’m pretty stoked! I think next time I have cash, I’m gonna focus on plinias, myrciaria, and Eugenia, but we shall see…
@@Dragonmastercj32 omg that list is amazing. Can I ask your source? I’d love to buy duguetia etc!! You def are getting some gems!

Finally! Yay!
Which ones taste like coconut? I am growing 3 different yellow varieties, hope to taste them soon.

Could you try one that is freshly fallen off the vine? With the Fredrick variety, they taste just fine, no wrinkle stage required.
OK, I did! I had hit and miss results. Some fresh off the vine were insipid and not that great. In fact more of them than not. But I did have one straight off the vine that wasn’t wrinkled. That was really good.
wow. ok. interesting results. Thanks!!!
