Passion Fruit

I was just coming back from a walk with the dogs, and noticed a tree in the neighbor's front yard that is kind of hanging over into our yard. I never actually looked that close at the tree before, I knew it had a passion vine all over its top, but not until today did I notice that it is actually a tree full of passion fruit!

I have never seen a passion tree up close before, it was pretty cool discovering this close! I am sure the neighbor will let us have some fruit, she gets bananas from our banana trees all the time, and since she lives alone, I doubt she could eat all that fruit herself. I will have to ask for some after she gets back form vacation! So cool!
