I was so surprised to see the Passion Flower pic on the screen this morning! I'm glad you liked it and Thank You Kell...

It grows on a trellis on the Eastern exposure of my house and the plant is now massive.

Thank you to Kin!

Great photo. My vine has been struggling since we had some really strong winds come thur the area. I am in 9b Central Eastern Florida. Would this be a good time to remove it from the pot and plant in the ground?
