Hi Jan!

Yes! Mine are the ones from you. :0) I know they are supposed to be tart, but so were my pineapple guava :0) My soil turned them bland, and I don't even eat them. I'm hoping the passies will taste as good as the ones I've had before from the store :0)

The flavicarpa already have a finger thick stem at the base, and have climbed the top of the porch poles. No flowers, yet, but we are usually about a month behind FL & CA, so should have some soon.

Mine is really baking on that porch. We have been in the 100's and I'm sure it is even hotter under that clear polycarbonate roof! It is holding up nicely, so far.

It is so much better behaved than the blue sky vine I had there before. This is the best it ever looked, but it was exhausting trying to keep it this "controlled". I have one left to take out and right now it is just a huge monster tangle...
