Granadilla Passion Fruit Vine (Giant Granadilla) - Passiflora quadrangularis

Granadilla Passion Fruit is commonly called Giant Granadilla to describe its giant football-sized fruit--the largest fruit in the Passiflora family. It also grows showy purple blooms. Passifloras are larval host plants to Zebra Longwing, Gulf Fritillary, Crimson Patch Longwing, Red-Banded Hairstreak, Julia Butterfly, and Mexican Butterfly. They will eat your plants up, but passifloras grow quickly enough that it should not be a problem as they can stay ahead of the larvae. For butterfly gardening, be sure and plant in part shade.
