Perfectly ripe passionfruit
The premium Australian passionfruit grown at Rocky Creek Orchards on our Tolga farm are the Pandora variety. Pandora passionfruit is very well suited to our Atherton Tablelands tropical climate and thrive in our trellised orchard.
An eye-catching and exceptional plant, the flower on this vine is flamboyant, complicated, and highly attractive to pollinators – which is extremely useful as they only bloom for one day. The passionfruit at Rocky Creek Orchards are in season year-round in Far North Queensland, so you can enjoy this very delicious fruit farm-fresh, always.
Flavour
Our Pandora Passionfruit is described as a superb flavour, being very sweet with a slight tanginess. Pandora Passionfruit pairs well with other flavours such as ginger, mint (think a passionfruit inspired mojito), vanilla, caramel and salty, rich cheeses – making it an excellent addition to your next charcuterie board.
Texture
This eye-catching fruit is large and glossy. When ripe the skin changes in the field from green to shades of burgundy red and purple. The pulp inside is juicy and yellow with brown or black seeds.
