Hopefully, it'll survive these arctic winds to eventually flower, Sticki.

which one is it? what colour?

Sorry for the delay, Sticki. Trouble with my ISP.
It only described it as Passion flower-passiflora, so I'm clueless at this point.

Be a nice surprise when it comes out!!

they are amazing flowers ~ whatever the colour

It's purple with yellow stamen in the pic, if I recall correctly, Sticki.
I must check tomorrow, just to jog my memory. Lol.

Do I just type that address, Sticki?

oh sorry ~ the way i do it is to left click the mouse to the left of the 'http' then hold down the left button and drag it right across to the 'e' of terrible ~ so that its all highlighted, then right click the mouse ~ you may get the option to 'copy' or to 'go to http.......'

if you get the option to 'go to' then click the left button of the mouse on that go to and you should get a new page opening which is the one with the purple passionflower picture.

if you only get the option to 'copy' then left click on that, put the curser into the address bar at the top of the page and right click ~ you should then see the option to paste ~ click that with the left mouse button.

i hope that doesnt sound horribly complicated ~ its ok once you have done it a few times.

Unfortunately, I'm using a touchscreen phone, Sticki, so it'll have to be the long route for me, either tapping or trawling through. Lol.

Crikey, Sticki, that was a struggle!
Managed to end up off site twice, but got there eventually.
Steve posted a photo of passiflora cureae (I think that's what it said) on 5th Oct, 2010.
That's what's on the wee card of the passion flower that's decided to adopt me as it's carer.
Slave, more like. :-)

Oh sorry, it's much trickier on the phone, will it work if you hold your finger on the link till its highlighted then copy and paste into the address?
I find the main computer easier for links but the touch screens are great otherwise!
