Go a passionfruit as you get some fruit to enjoy.


When old mick on the corner near the telephone exchange sold his property,
about 10 years ago, he had a lovely passionfruit over the eastern end
trellis, but it was an unusual sort.


we can't have any kind of passionfruit here but (apparently) banana
passionfruit (i'm not quite sure what that is, yet), unfortunately, because
of the phenomenal frosts. passionfruit vines are tops!! (except for that one
problem). i have a local friend with one that grew spontaneously in teh
"wrong" position, & it fruits all out of season, but my word it's a goer. my
shed is really quite exposed though, so never mind.

(did old mick take some cuttings?)
