Nellie Kelly Passionfruit Grafted Panama Gold brings the lush growth of the tropics to the cooler, southern states. It produces attractive purple and white flowers, followed by up to 150 super large, golden, soft-skinned fruit during summer and autumn. The juicy, aromatic passionfruit pulp has a full, sweet flavour.
With its hardy, frost-resistant rootstock, this vine is resistant to disease, pests and temperature extremes, and thrives as far south as Tasmania. Its lush, evergreen foliage provides an attractive natural screen that covers up to 8sqm a year, making it ideal for beautifying unsightly fences and sheds.
To ensure successful growth and longevity prune back shoots from below the graft point to control the spread of the root stock.
