Description:
Passiflora edulis Pandora is a vibrant and prolific variety of passionfruit, well-loved for its large, sweet, and tangy fruit. This tropical vine features lush, glossy green foliage and curly tendrils that help it climb and spread over trellises or fences. The Pandora cultivar is known for its attractive, delicate flowers, which are typically white with a hint of purple and a striking corona. The fruit of Pandora is larger than many other passionfruit varieties, with a smooth, purple rind and a fragrant, juicy interior packed with aromatic pulp. The vines usually begin to bear fruit within 18 months of planting, making it a great choice for gardeners who want a quick and rewarding harvest. Ideal for subtropical and tropical climates in Australia, Pandora thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, producing high yields of delicious passionfruit.
