A few years ago I planted a Passiflora edulis plant growth from a farmer's market fruit's seed in my backyard against a wall. It slowly climbed up and took over as the dominant species in the back yard. It saw Thyme, and Moss, and finally Dichondra planted between the stepping stones and survived them all. One flower emerged last year, but this year, despite its location (which can't be helped) a flower every other day has opened for the summer. And every single one of them has been finger pollinated by me. And several fruit have set. It's far from a crop, but it will work for a dessert or cocktail once the fruit fall.
