Thanks, Betsy. I bought a started plant of the P. quad several years ago and have started cuttings of it from the original.

I do love those huge purple flowers, but I really wanted to grow the big, yellow fruit. Its common name in the Caribbean is "Giant Granadilla" and the fruits are supposed to get as big as a football! But sad to say, I've never yet had a flower set a fruit.
