Passiflora edulis, commonly known as passion fruit, is a vine species of passion flower native to southern Brazil through Paraguay and northern Argentina.

There are many varieties of passion fruit ranging in colors and shapes. The most common passion fruit is round with a reddish to purple skin color. The jelly-like pulp is yellow/orange and has an intense aromatic fragrance. The seeds are small, crunchy and fully edible. It has a wonderful balance of tangy and sweet flavors. Passion fruit contains large amounts of phosphorus and vitamin A. The high levels of magnesium found in this fruit may help reduce stress and anxiety.
