Thank you Jacque and Lily. Passiflora needs warmth to really get going and it's always one of those plants that I wait for and I used to worry if it made it through the winter. Now I know it's just a late one. It's probably the end of June before it gets blooms. It's well worth the wait though. Makes me think I'm in the tropics !

Lily that may be a different kind of passionfruit that you eat. These are edible but they have to be very ripe or else they'll make you sick (I'm told). I've never eaten one but I do save them for the seeds. These are almost hollow. The seeds have more 'fruit' around them than anything else but it's just like an embryo around a seed, not much more. The chipmunks love them though !

Members' notes...
Cut back large vines and moved small vine inside to try and winter over
Who knew that there was a Passionflower that was hardy in Ohio !! I bought one about 9 years ago and then another one a year later. It has to be really warm here for them to break out of the ground, but once they get going, the vine all over. The fragrance in the evening is heavenly.
