Hi everyone,i am interesting in learning about your experience with sweet lilikoi (Passiflora alata).I have been growing 3 vines (seedlings) put together on a single structure. They started fruiting the second year from the 3rd flush of flowers. I used to do some hand pollinating while flowering but was a bit discouraged when i observed that not all flushes but one out of 2/3 would set fruits. I was not able to follow up these vines because i moved to another place. Is this hazardous fruit setting a common habit of this specie? I was very enthusiastic with this fruit because of its sweetness but regarding productivity i am not sure how it goes... I would have liked to know more about it. Do you know if that is a commercially grown specie? Are they generally grown from seed or cuttings?Thanks!
