PASSIFLORA QUADRANGULARIS
Giant Granadilla
A tropical American vine having large leaves, large pink-purple flowers, and
large fruits, it is a favorite in the Caribbean. The fruit is 6-12" long, has
three grooves and the thick rind can be eaten as well as the pulp. The
melon-like rind is rather tasteless unless it is mixed with the pulp or other
fruits for flavoring. The fruit color is greenish yellow. The flavor is an acid
sweet. Propagated by seed or cutting.
