Product Description

Passiflora edulis 'Christine', commonly known as Christine Granadilla, is a vigorous evergreen climbing vine renowned for its delicious, aromatic purple passion fruit and spectacular exotic flowers. This productive variety is highly regarded for its reliable fruit production, making it an excellent choice for home gardens, orchards, pergolas, trellises, and boundary fences.

Throughout spring and summer, the vine produces large, intricate white flowers with striking purple and blue centres, attracting bees and other beneficial pollinators. These are followed by smooth-skinned purple fruit filled with sweet, tangy pulp that is perfect for eating fresh, juicing, desserts, baking, and preserves.

Fast-growing and easy to cultivate, Christine Granadilla quickly provides lush green coverage while producing abundant crops when grown in a sunny position with adequate support.

Suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
