I have an apricot passion fruit in my garden, are these fruits edible?

The flower is the blue kind, if they are edible, how do I harvest them?

The fruits are edible. When the pods turn orange, pick them and tear them open, scoop out the fruit and you can either mix it with slightly melted ice cream or whip egg whites and caster sugar together until the mix is slightly stiff, fold in some double cream and add the passion fruit; let it chill in the fridge for approx' 1 hour and serve with shortbread biscuits.
Reply:Call your local county extension agent. He/she should be able to tell you. The number should be listed under the name of your county, e.g. "Orange County Extension Office." These folks are usually really good at this kind of thing.

Reply:If this is the ordinary sort of passion flower, the fruits are edible but not particularly nice to eat.





Leave them on the plant, they look very decorative.
