Ok. I trimmed the dead parts of the P. Incense but I definitely want it to grow more. I have to bring it indoors this year. So I'm hoping it will do well. My poor humidifier is going to have to work overtime this winter lol

That is fine go ahead and keep it trimmed through the winter. Come spring let it grow if you want it to flower. You can trim it back again next winter and root the cuttings

You do not have to trim it. It's just a matter of what is manageable for you.

Wink Re: Trying to root Cuttings?
I've trimmed mine back as far as 6" with success....but I was overwintering mine and couldn't bring a huge vine in the house. Even one cut to soil line returned for me.


Keep in mind also that some vines grown from seed don't flower until the 2nd year.


After initially pruning your vines and when you have many branches going in every direction, just let them run, as Tony suggests. Some of mine wrapped around my trellis 3 times over!

I second that, Cameron. Tony is also an amazing grower of potted citrus trees. I don't always see all the great pictures of plants posted by everyone, and certainly I don't mean to offend other advanced gardeners in the org, but Tony's pictures have caught my eye.

I have to agree that Tony's pretty fantastic!


Tony, you've got some of the best damn passiflora vines I've ever seen! I'd love to do a seedtrade with you sometime...
