Passion Flower
With the rain we just had, we are having some late summer flowers. I went out along the tracks to take some pictures and found these guys growing. I went carzy taking pictures of them. The webpage I found said it will have a fruit as well. It didn't say if it was eatable. Does anyone know?
Care for the passion fruit vines requires full sun except during those very hot summer days, if possible provide some partial shade. The vine is a fast grower and can get out of hand, so if possible plant it next to a chain link fence or on a trellis.
Water & Soil
Passion fruit vines grow in many soil types but make sure that the plant gets excellent drainage. If you want to keep the vines flowering almost continuously, regular water is necessary. The vines are shallow-rooted, and will benefit from a thick layer of organic mulch.
