I am a passion fruit cultivar grown in Turkey, producing tangy-sweet pulp.

Passiflora edulis, native to South America; introduced to Turkey for exotic fruit farming.

Water every 5–7 days; drip irrigation preferred.

Requires full sun.

Thrives in 20–30°C; greenhouse protection needed in cooler regions.

Apply compost and NPK 8:10:10 every 2–3 months; supplement with potassium for fruit quality.

Botanical name: Passiflora edulis; Family: Passifloraceae.

Fruits are safe; seeds edible.

Moderate; vine foliage reduces dust.

Fruits rich in vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants; used fresh, juiced, or processed.

Susceptible to root rot, aphids, and fruit fly; requires integrated pest management.

Can live 10–15 years; starts fruiting in 2–3 years; peak yield from year 5 onward.
