The passion fruit
comes from a climbing plant native to Paraguay, Brazil and northeastern Argentina. This subtropical plant does not tolerate well the cold weather and that is why it is cultivated in warm countries. At maturity, its fruit is a purple berry, 3 to 4 cm in diameter, containing many black seeds, surrounded by edible flesh. There is also a yellow variety called the Maracuya.
