Have you cut one of these fruits open? I wonder if it might be passiflora?

Sorry, no idea. Can you take one to the local extension office?

wrong vine for a passiflora, perhaps a pear of some kind.

Looks like a creeping fig. When you see them in a nursery, they have cute little innocent round leaves about 3/8 of an inch long. plant them in the ground and they get happy and will develop oval leaves up to 2 inches long . Some will fruit given enough time . the fruit isn't very tasty, although, some animals (rats) will eat it.

Yes it is a creeping fig. The plant has to get so large to put on 'fruit'. It is not, I believe edible. You can avoid the fruit by keeping it trimmed.

I looked it up and it's said it is edible, but not very good. Usually it's just juiced and doctored up to make it more palatable.

Lisa, these are not from a fig tree. The creeping fig is a vine and the figs are different
