Passiflora mollissima is also referred to as the banana passionfruit because its long yellow fruit resembles bananas. The plant has prolific fruit production; a single vine can support hundreds of fruits at maturity. P. mollissima is a relatively cold hardy passionflower able to survive several degrees below freezing and regrow from the roots with warmer weather. Hardy to zones 8b-10b. 

Passiflora seeds contain a hard outer seed coat which can reduce and slow germination. For best results, scarify the seeds by scratching the outer surface with a fine grit sandpaper or nail file, then soak the seeds for 24-48 hours in lukewarm to slightly warm water. After treatment the seeds should be sown between 1/2” to 3/8” deep in a well draining potting medium. Germination can take awhile and be sporadic, taking anywhere from 10-350 days. Properly treating the seeds prior to germination will greatly speed up germination.
