Notes from web scraping information on lilikoi farming.
Lilikoi / Passion Fruit
Propagating from cuttings
Cloning
Cloning can be done from cuttings. Clones are identical to the original plant. Choose a good variety based on flavor, yield, color, disease and pest resistance.
Cloning is different than grafting. Typical workflow is to clone yellow passion fruit with nematode resistance and after the clones are established, graft on less hearty fruit types.
Notes
Avoid terminal part of vine - results not as good - go back up the vine little more
Cutting can be done one node but 2 nodes are better
Clip off the new growth - tendrils and clip off 50% of leaf area.
