<h2><strong>Perfect Passionfruit Seeds (Passiflora popenovii)</strong></h2> <h2><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 3 seeds.</strong></span></h2> <p>The rare Passiflora popenovii gives probably the most delicious fruit of all Passiflora species. The transparent and very juicy flesh inside the soft shell of the bright yellow fruit is extremely sweet and has an exceptional, exotic, and fragrant taste.</p> <p>It originates from the rainforests of Colombia and Ecuador between 500 and 1900 m (1600 and 6200 feet) but is believed to have become extinct in the wild and to be grown only locally. It will easily adapt to growing in a wide range of climatic conditions.</p> <p>We think that Perfect Passionfruit has the potential to become far more popular than Passiflora edulis or Passiflora ligularis, which are common in fruit markets around the world.</p> <p>Cold hardy to -6C</p>
