Passiflora amethystina var. Doce
Passiflora amethystina var. Doce is a rare and exceptional variety collected from the cool mountain regions of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Unlike the standard Passiflora amethystina, this variety stands out for its sweet, low-acid fruit, making it far more palatable for fresh consumption. Its unique flavor profile is a true delight for passionfruit enthusiasts.
This wild-collected strain appears to exhibit cold-hardy characteristics, likely due to its origin at higher elevations. It holds promise for growers in subtropical or even marginal temperate zones, where typical tropical passionflowers may struggle. Its hardiness, paired with its unique fruit, makes it a valuable addition to any rare fruit collection.
Passiflora amethystina var. Doce grows as a vigorous liana, ideal for trellises, arbours, or fences. Like many passionflowers, this plant benefits from cross-pollination, so growing at least two plants is recommended for reliable fruiting.
