Panama Red Passion Fruit

Panama Red is an incredibly vigorous and delicious variety of passion fruit! Fruits are large with a bright purplish red skin and tons of tasty tangy pulp inside. Can be grown as a houseplant in USDA zones 8 or lower or planted outside where temperatures don’t regularly dip below freezing. An excellent variety and one of our favorites!

Passion fruit has a multitude of uses, from juices to cocktails as well as baked goods and ice cream toppings. The possibilities are endless. Add fresh passion fruit to any dish that needs some tropical sweet tang added to it! Given the difficulty of finding fresh passion fruit in most of our local markets it only makes sense to grow your own if you want to taste this tropical treat on a regular basis!
