Default Re: Passiflora

I think this is P. alata. This is the one that had P. edulis on the tag, but also had Passiflora Purp E. Playboy on the label on the pot. I believe it it is P. alata based on the 'wings' on the stems, or maybe a hybrid because of that name 'Playboy'. Anyone know what distinguishes P. alata from P. decaisneana? Oh, another thing I noticed was that it has three open blooms, and all of them hang straight down. My P. edulis does not do that.
Passiflora alata (?)
