I grew mine from seed last year in a pot and carried it over to this season and it's growing again like crazy. No flowers or fruits the first year, which I was told was normal for new young seed-grown vines. Hoping to get some this year...

: )

Thanks!! Mine is growing so fast. It has some flower buds forming as has put out about 4 inches of growth in 3 days! Im trying to train it to go on a rope. We shall see. Ill share some pics when it blooms which should hopefully be soon!!!

I finally have my first passion flower bloom opening. I believe this is the common Incarnata, but still very beautiful.

With more to come!

Thanks Sue! I think they look like alien flowers with all their wild curly ques!

Tony which is that delicate little white one? You have the most incredible collection of passion fruit! Have you eaten all of them? Which tastes the best to you?

I am not sure which variety the White one is.I planted 40 or so different varieties and had given up on growing Passiflora last summer because of spidermites,in the greenhouse So I took what I had and started planting them all outdoors thinking they wouldn't survive. Most all made it and once established are pretty hardy. I have twelve different one's flowering right now and another six varieties that haven't flowered yet.
As far as the best tasting Frederick's.

How long for Frederick's flowers to open. I'm getting lots of little buds and keep looking for them to get bigger and open, but I'm impatient. I've only had it in the ground for 2-3 weeks but it's grow maybe 16 inches or so.

I am guessing from first seeing the SEPALS till they open about two weeks. Frederick's opens around 11am. They are self fertile put it dosen't hurt to go ahead and hand pollinate.

harveyc · 07-19-2010, 10:06 PM

I don't think I even have buds yet, just sepals. I guess I'll know the stages of flowering better once I have my first flower.

Pete's not posting photos for me to critique so I'll jump on yours and point out you've really blown your highlights, Tony!!!

I think I now have a dozen or so buds on my Frederick. I hope they open before we go to Nicaragua in mid-August.

My P. ligularis is still hanging in there despite some pretty hot temperatures over the past couple of weeks. Still pretty small, though.
