Notes

'Sweet Sunrise' purple granadilla (Passiflora edulis 'Sweet Sunrise') is a vine for the food garden. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full or part sun. It is grown for sweet, tangy golden yellow fruit with orange-yellow pulp and crunchy seeds. The fragrant white and purple flowers bloom in early to late summer and draw butterflies and hummingbirds.

Pairs well with Zinfandel grape, Pomegranate, Fuyu persimmon, and Roselle.
