My first pod on this one...
P. murucuja seedpod and strange little green flower
that is an odd looking flower, do you have any seeds to spare.
No seeds yet; I got this one from Logee's last year. Unfortunately, they only had them for a few months and I haven't seen them offered since.
OK Thanks.
I have this one. Bought it from Kartuz, I think (could be wrong, though). Mine is blooming fairly well, though, the whole first flush was all those tiny little green flowers like you pic. All since then have been the nice reddish ones. I also have a fruit on mine. Are these self fertile? If not, then it's a cross with P. citrina.
I remember reading somewhere that P. murucuja can't be crossed with anything, and that even when pollen from another species is used to pollinate it's flowers, the seeds produce pure murucuja, with the pollen only having initiated the development of the seeds while contributing nothing genetically speaking.
I'll try to find the page I read that on and post a link over the weekend.
