Tony, looks like the "clock" on my Fredericks is the same as yours. As of 10:40am this morning, no flowers were open. Checked again at 11:10am and two flowers had opened. I won't be around tomorrow to check (or Portuguese club founded in 1899 is having its annual Holy Ghost Festa tomorrow).

How soon will I likely know if they pollinated? I only assisted in the pollination of one flower thus far.

There should be a fruit forming in a few days.

You could almost set you watch by them. Try watching one open ,when you get time,but don't blink or you will miss it.

I didn't think I had any buds left on my Fredericks but I noticed at 10:52 this morning that two more flowers were opened up. I think that's 12 flowers in the past six days. There's lots of new growth and the plant has reached above the top of the trellis now.

Are the buds that opened before staying green or turning yellow ? Any fruit set yet ?

The buds are still green, though maybe a little pale. I don't know if fruit has set or not. I peeked into the flowers just now and noticed the ovary on a couple from a few days ago was yellow and the flower dropped off but some of the earlier ones are still green and holding firm.

Man, after looking at the site for Grassy Knoll Exotic Plants, I want a hundred different passiflora! Of course, hardly any are hardy here, but I'll figure out a way around that. Grassy Knoll Exotic Plants

Rats, all of my Frederick flower buds fell off, guess they didn't get pollinated.
