was at lim chu kang when i saw this fruit for the first time. found out it is thai or siam passion fruit. this fruit is double the size of the normal passion fruit. looks a bit like a huge guava. seems the seeds can be eaten together with the rest of the fruit. it can be eaten raw or cooked.
just like the malaysian passion fruit, it grows from a vine. so, you can have it grown beside a fence or from a structure, like the one shown in the top picture.
saw also for the first time, this white hibiscus flower. white hibiscus is considered to have medicinal properties in the indian traditional system of medicine, ayurveda.
white hibiscus is not uncommon in hawaii. the flowers last only a day. in hawaii, they bloom as white in the morning but towards afternoon, they turn pink.
