I've been to that botanical garden before on Maui where they have literally dozens of types from all over the world. There is so much they'll let you just take fruit. I tried maybe 4 different ones and I found the differences pretty subtle. I'm kind of scared how big mine will get in 20 years because I don't really have the room for it. |

30 years ago someone told me to look at the lobes. Panapen has deep lobes. Ma'afala Pana de Pepitas has shallow lobes. Breadnut When I saw your photo, I thought it had shallow lobes. You have the whole tree to view, so you're probably correct. Great Photo and Thanks for clearing that up.

![]() ![]() Thanks Olaf, You might not like reading this, but............ about 15 minutes before taking the photo I saw a large pile of these weeds being discarded. The previous owner decided to replace them with asparagus fern.

![]() That takes nothing away from the quality of the picture, which harmonizes
superbly with the sunset sky in the background. ![]()

![]() After struggling to grow anything in this foreign land AKA Florida, I think I hate you! I try so hard to avoid your picture posts but can't; they draw me in. Beautiful flowers! I'd grow those even if they never fruited and passion fruit tasted like eel.

![]() If I lived in Florida I could grow some of the more tropical ones I can't grow here. Passiflora are easy.

![]() Yeah, well tomatoes grow anywhere--they're weeds. Got any here? Nope. I'll figure it out and make it work but FL is not the land of milk and honey. Trust me on this.
