About Passiflora maliformis:

Passiflora maliformis is hardy in USDA zones 5 through 10, and will grow as a perennial in warmer climates. Passion Fruit is tolerant of droughts and cold weather, however it does best in warm weather with frequent watering. Partial sun to full sun is ideal.
To germinate, gardeners scarify their seeds by rubbing them lightly against fine-grit sandpaper to help thin the seed coat. Afterwards, place the scarified seeds into hot water (not boiling, just hot to the touch, ~100F), and let them sit overnight. Replace the water with hot, fresh water the next morning. After soaking the seeds, they can be placed into starting soil, 1/4 inch deep. Make sure to keep the starter pots in direct sunlight, keep them warm, and don't let the soil dry out. Germination should occur within 2 to 4 weeks. Considering this longer germination time, planting the seeds in late winter to early spring is ideal.
