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...

Oh, sorry. I'm on a single-track gardening mind, obviously!

Does passion fruit grow on passiflora?



Yes, all are edible when ripe but quite a number are not worth eating.
Never eat them green though as they contain cyanide!
