Passiflora Edulis. Passion Flower. Pyramid.
The Passiflora Edulis is a fast growing evergreen perennial climber with some of the most beautiful exotic looking flowers produced in succession throughout the summer.

Pretty glossy mid-green leaves are deeply lobed with 3 fingers and climbing tendrils. Fruits are egg sized, yellow or purple in colour and are edible.
