Passiflora maliformis

Native to Colombia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Jamaica, and Leeward Is. and nearby regions, this is a vine in the Passifloraceae family. It grows predominantly in wet tropical habitats. It is known as a liana, a type of long-stemmed, woody vine that is rooted in the soil at ground level and uses trees, as well as other means of vertical support, to climb up to the sunlight in the forest canopy​​. The fruit it bears is unique, with a hard rind encasing a greyed-yellow to orange pulp that is aromatically scented and flavored with a hard skin with a taste likened to that of a grape when eaten raw or made into a drink​. Photographed in the department of Quindio, Colombia.
