Mark in CA: Do those latter two Passiflora hybrids have coriacea blood in them?
Kenton
Pics of your passies, please?
James, both of them do. In fact, they are both the same cross I think, just done at different times.
Mark
Yard, you pic looks like P. Incense

Well, thank goodness SOMEONE knows what it is! The people at Wally World sure didn't!
I passed over the red passiflora because I know the butterflies ignore it. this one was just too beeeuuuuutiful to pass up, though

lady lavender, lady margaret
i will try to get some when i am back in the states and bring them out
Oh, pebble, where are they in the states, are you in the military? I've seen about 5 or 6 (at least) I "need" to add to my collection.... If they are a tough vine, I can keep them in the basement, alive but not growing.... I just love all the colors!
SHARON! I am green with envy! How glorious, just .. I'm in AWE! I knew it was a rugged one.... If you can grow her like that, WHY doesn't everyone down there have one in their garden??? I'm in zone 5b, just happy as a clam I can grow them to bloom 2 or 3 at a time! Ok, I'm moving!! lol
Kay - that's gorgeous! Does it have a scent?
More beautiful flowers! Mark your Passiflora Racemosa 'Buzios' is so different. Luv it!! I'm drooling over everyone's Lady Margaret! I've been wanting one for dogs ages...lol!!

Passiflora edulis / a.k.a. Purple Passion Fruit, Granadilla
I planted this from seed in the late spring. It had only one bud, which opened the day after I brought it indoors last week. I have several other plants started from seed last year but they have never bloomed with the exception of the two planted in the ground in my greenhouse. They bloomed for the first time this year and have bloomed profusely.
OH, Kay, THAT is the one I killed! I love it! The petal edges look almost blue.. just gorgeous! Maybe I will try again in spring if I can find one. Wow, Donovan, how patient you are. I bet you will get lots of blooms next year. Paul, is yours in the ground?
Sharon, talk about MASSIVE! She's making quite a spectacle of herself! Wow, re01434, THAT is HUGE also, is that a pineapple in front of it? I've been growing a pineapple since last spring, a friend brought it to me, hasn't really grown that much...... A pic of a L.M bloom in early fall, they seemed to be smaller with cooler nights, taken a couple weeks ago.
@AuntB
yes, in front of the p. edulis is a pineapple.
well... here'sClearSky...into November..and she's doing as good as ever..not a sign of stress from the high winds and cold rains.. the color is slightly softer..and less vibrant now.. I like to set them to climb the fence... then jump to other plants.. which anchors both plants in the high winds.. just before this picture.. the wind picked up a glass topped table with folded and tied down umbrella and umbrella weight..and blew it some 10' away from where had been .. the second time it happened a few days later .. the glass broke ..but the flowers persist... and well a great job anchoring... in this photo.. anchoring a plumeria.. we'll be bringing them all downstairs this week.. the plumeria will go in under lights and ClearSky will go into the hallway.under a skylight...and climb up the ladder..and perhaps bloom till spring..

That's what I called getting the most out of your growing season, Gordon... I didn't realize New York's zone was that high...
Beautiful AuntB! But for those of you who have to whack your vines back I just do not know how you do it!! I have the worst time cutting anything back.
