One fruit I particularly like but don't see much in the UK shops is
grenadilla (is there an English name?). Divine! Lidl (of all places!)
was selling them a while back...


Grenadilla is one of several species of Passion fruit


So I see, but when I think of passion fruit (at least what goes by that
name here) it's quite different.


Where is 'here'? The Passionflower most seen grown outdoors in UK is
Passiflora caerulea.


UK- I'm talking about passion fruit you buy in shops...
