Any advice on starting Passiflora seeds? I started some in two different mediums and have Edulis seeds coming in the mail soon.

There is no real trick to starting Passiflora seed.I use to think there was. Soak in warm water for 24hr.Sow in fast draining mix,only bury seed a 1/4 or so.Keep soil moist ,not wet. Place in warm spot 70f to 75f is fine.

Good info Tony, do you think that one has to wait? That is the only thing I don't like about sprouting seeds is the wait. All of the info we have gained from you has shown up in the seedlings. It did take awhile though. Thanks

Some seed have a hard seed coat and they will take longer to sprout.Soaking the seed for two or more days,higher temps, or nicking may speed up the process.I've had seed of different varieties sprout in 4 days other varieties 4 months. Also if you are buying or getting seed from someone check to see if they float or sink in water.If their floaters their probably no good.

Tony- I'll have a good harvest of my incarnata fruit. Only thing is, I don't know when to pick. I either do it when they're not ripe, or dried out. Any help?

Tony, nice purple fruits. I've only got a few off my Fredericks so far, but there's another hundred or so green ones on the plant. The nice thing about this variety is they fall off when they're ripe, so you don't have Howard's problem!
Tony, what is the orange fruit in the photo? |

The fruits will grow larger than a hen's egg to near tennis ball size, and when they are ripe, they turn a dull yellow-green color. When mature, the passionfruit will develop the characteristic fragrance, and the skin may become puckered or puffy. Last edited by sunfish : 08-30-2011 at 07:34 AM. |

A two hour trip takes a lot out of me. However, in the past month I have been catching up. The temps will drop soon and then I will be able to do more. If I could get off of some of the meds then things would be much happier for me but the quacks say that they are needed. Time will tell. We have traveled Florida from east to west and north to south. It is beautiful with what it offers and the rest of the states also have their beautiful features.
A visit to your place would be fantastic for me. You have so much beauty around you. Might happen, who knows. Thanks |

I've never harvested Incarnata so that info is from the net. If you ever want to trade seed let me know.Incarnata is very interesting so I'm always looking for seed.They will cross pollinate with other varieties.

OK. The only 2 I have are incarnata and Lady Margaret. No fruit on the latter, but I'll see if I can save some incarnata seeds.
