Description: Passiflora Edulis Golden GiantAlso known as: Passion FruitKnown for its large edible egg-shaped fruit and is commonly used in tropical beverages and sauces. The pulp has an intense aromatic flavor, while the texture is jelly-like and watery. The seeds are edible so you can eat the pulp straight from the shell. It is an excellent source of vitamins A, C, and many dietary fibers. The beautiful flowers can average 4" and have an abundance of long wavy filaments.It is a fast-growing, perennial vine that can grow up to 10 meters long (20-30 feet) and will require a good climbing aid. Nutrient-rich potting soil with a suitable proportion of sand, perlite or vermiculite will ensure good permeability. Good drainage is also beneficial. It has always been grown in Paraguay, Brazil and northern Argentina, their native land. But because of their delicious fruit it has been cultivated all over the world. It is considered to be hardy in USDA zones 5-9, but they should be planted in a protected location and mulched heavily if severe cold threatens. Only the top growth is killed back by frost, but your Passion Flower should pop back to life in the Spring.It is suitable for container planting, and enjoys a warm sunny spot. Butterflies love this plant!This offer is for 10 seeds.For complete transparency we include payment processing & Ebay fees in our shipping/handling cost.*DISCLAIMER*NO RETURNS/REFUNDS/REPLACEMENTS ON SEEDSMost specialty seeds we offer are NOT fast to germinate.Many take several weeks, months, and some even up towards a year depending on dormancy, region, season etc. It is important that the buyer understands that seeds are perishable products and seed germination can be adversely affected by such factors as mold/fungus, bugs, temperature, moisture content, light intensity, dormancy, care, contamination of planting media among many other reasons. These factors are totally out of The Plant Attraction's control and are the buyer's responsibility and risk. Germination recommendations are sent with each order and the buyer is free to research and use their own methods. Floating seeds do not always indicate that the seed is not viable. Many times it is a misconception because the seed does not have the density to sink in water. Accordingly, The Plant Attraction does not guarantee seeds to perform properly regardless of conditions or buyer's methods or mistakes. Since 2006 we have been doing our best to hand sort and provide the freshest, cleanest harvest that is free of defects and bugs.
