OMG, tomatoes don't even develop that fast!!! We have no idea how to tell if the fruit is ripe or not. I'm hoping that it turns some cool color to let us know. I'm very curious to see how it tastes.Another fruit we had I wasn't sure how to tell if it was ripe was the figs...but since I have been gone, they are starting to let me know it's time to pick. I'll let it go another day or two and see if it's easily removable from the tree. Way cool...I'm hoping this tastes good too.
I know I have been making comments about how dry this summer has been. I have been able to post a couple of pics on little things I've seen around here showing drought stress. I was stunned at what I saw on the way back from NY this weekend in the Bershire Mountains in MA.
That's not fall color. That's fried, burnt foliage...a whole hillside of it. I was blown away. So, if you have lost plants this summer to drought....yes, it was that dry.

This is amazing! I've just been thinking about my own passionfruits in my Mumbai garden and here I come across your blog from the other end of the world, also mentioning passionfruits .
Do you know which variety of passionfruit you have? Mine is a red p.edulis I think. I grew it from seed so there's no label I can refer to. If you want to see a picture, I've posted about it here: http://the-urban-gardener.blogspot.com/2010/08/passionfruit-magic.html

It was great finding your blog!
I can't wait to see how the passion fruit ripens.
