    Alcohol to be banned in some parts of Indonesia

    Obviously only the one group was asked about their opinion on the ban as I have plenty of Muslim friends who though do not drink alcohol think that the direction their country is taking is not a good one and that this ban does not follow the national motto of "unity in diversity" of Indonesia.

    Passion Fruit, Maracuya (Markisa)

    We have the giant ones growing like weeds in our garden. They are good for juices and as a sauce for deserts, but no where the same as the small ones that you can crack open and eat on the spot. So yes the giant ones grow in Bali. The small one I planted was covered and smothered by the larger one.
