passiflora lovers... passion flower

[SueA]

It looks as though it's doing very well, mine has recovered & has now spread completely across the trellis it's on & has quite a few flowers on.

Mine are looking healthy this year but I did lose one to that dreadful February we had.. They continue growing well into October, even the Constance Elliott (the white one).

[Glutton4...]

Wow - what a lovely picture! You must be very pleased.

[muslimgrower]

indeed comrade... i used some garden twine and the tendrils have wrapped themselves around it over an arc that i made

[rustylady]

My passionflower is aiming to take over the world. No pictures I'm afraid.

Congratulations! I've got 6 seedlings on th go at the moment.

[Nicos]

well done!
I thought the long, cold winter hd finally seen mine off- but nope- tis trying to get into the kitchen through the back door and under the roof

If you let some of it trail sideways along the ground you'll find it'll root and you'll get more free plants!

That's a beauty Muslimgrower! A lovely photo too.
My massive ancient passionflower on the trellis outside unfortunately did die in the winter, we had weeks of snow & it got down to minus 15C on a couple of nights & it was just too much for it, it had survived coldish winters before though & yours looks like it's doing well.

[muslimgrower]

hi sue and thanks..

hope it survives the winter though, its behind a bamboo so maybe that will kinda comfort it through the winter....

Does anyone know where i can get a 'Betty Myles Young' passiflora? Passiflora 'Betty Myles Young' 9

[SueA]

There's a place called Roseland House in Cornwall which stocks passiflora 'Betty Myles Young' at £8.50 + £13 p&p for however much you order. Also Tynings Climbers is a nursery with the national collection of passiflora who have it but I'm not sure if they do mail order. Here's a link to the Roseland site.
