thanks! night was good indeed.

was reading how passionfruit comes in 2 colors! purple and yellow. i only know the yellow tart delicious maracuyá.

best thing about it is it grows FAST. also read some strains resist temperatures of 20F so it should be a piece of cake in your area.

i mean you want to grow an avocado tree and those take years. but the maracuyá grows like a vine and

oh i just looked it up.

might wanna switch to tomatos ha ha ha. 2-3 years for the passionfruit. 3-13 years for the avocado (3-4 if you buy ready tree, up to 13 if you plant) / i thought the maracuyá was a little faster but 2years is a bit of a long horizon for a rental.

lissen-- grow basil. great place to start and always tasty. also, mint grows like a weed and keeps bugs & rodents away (they say). great in your sweet tea. humid subtropical gardens are great for a lot of things. peppers, for example. beans. tomato of course. shit, you could plant corn and it's ready in 100 days. i'm thinking also sweet potatoes.
