• I love this style! šŸ

  • Excellent photos, so many bees on such a gorgeous flower.

  • Is that a lilikoi flower

    Yes, that’s one of its names. Passion Flower is what it’s referred to where I’m from; Likikoi is its Hawaiian name.

    This particular one is Passiflora Edulis var. Nancy Garrison.

    Im born and raised in Hawaii. I didn't know it was passion fruit. Where you are does it grow naturally?

    It’s native to the Americas. I’m growing several ā€œedulisā€ (choice edible) varieties in Northern California in my front and back yards. Right now it’s been blooming like crazy since September.

    This is the first time I’ve grown passionfruit - they took about 18-20 months just growing and growing before the first set suddenly began popping flowers and then fruit after tons of pollination over the summer.

    These pics are from the second set, planted a few months after the first set, so they too have been planted for around 18 months.
