New Passion Flower Purple Rain...

Absolutely stunning, I have one in flower too, they must be hardy after the recent frosts.

Agree it is stunning.

Absolutely beautiful, Holly.

Mine is Lady Lavender but not as exotic as yours.

I agree with everyone, its stunning,

Thanks everyone....

that is fantastic, what a beautiful blue ~ its almost more like an ornament than a plant ~ its so perfect.
i would even brave the cold and frost to go into the garden to look at something as amazing as that!

Thanks stickitoffee...... its still out today... and more buds nearly open...

It is beautiful, I thought I'd lost mine last Winter but it finally sent shoots up from the base but no flowers this year :-) So nice to see yours.

Thanks dawn.... gla dyours is still ok....

Hopefully it could be the climber I am looking for on my south facing trellis in my north facing garden which also gets cold winds. Thanks for the lovely photos and for the advice from various people re. the best plant for me.

glad you like it Jaya.... im sure it would be great for your south facing trellis..... it seems to cope with the sea winds here.....

im so jelous holly as iv had mine a year and nothing yet hahah, its stunning, well done

that is a real beauty! hasnt it done well flowering in its first year!

Beautiful :o)

Great colour, would buy myself when I see one .

Thanks everyone.... hope yours has some flowers next year sandra....

me to holly, will be sure to post pic if i do ;o))

this one has another flower out today and more buds coming.... i bought it on ebay.. it was only a small plant but its now trailing all along the patio....

thats great holly, my white one was off ebay to and has grown alot but cant see anything in the way of buds, cant get to it for my salix tree and very wet, so will have to wait till i can lol

i think mine likes being next to the house on a south facing wall...... hope it stops raining for you........

thanx holly ;o)

They are really beautiful Congratulations :o) Mine died lol I never seem to be able to keep them. I'm pleased you are so successful :o)

What lovely photos of a really lovely Passion flower! :-))

There's no doubt they are hardy as at the vets practice where we used to take our dogs the whole house is covered in an enormous Passion flower! It looks great when in flower & it also looks very good when only the orange fruits are left on the walls!

I've no idea how old it might be but it's probably been there a lot longer than 20 years!

Sorry about yours Hywel..... i find them easier to grow here than clematis.....

Thank you Balcony.... ive seen walls covered in these as well.....

mine flowered as well this year !!! got it this year . 2 flowers was so xcited

i know how you feel cristina......... : O ))

lol have tuk pics but have bin 2 busy to get them on uggg
