They are beautiful aren't they.

Wish I could grow them outside but too cold in north east.

Lovely!


Debs I grow one outside. I'm on the coast of Northumberland. It has been cut back hard a couple of times because it romps away.  I got it by chance. It appeared in a pot of crysanthes and a parlour palm my mum had been given.The crysanthes looked ropey,the parlour palm died off and this little climbing plant appeared!

Moomin. I have never grown passion flower in fact have only seen them on a plant tag. This year I have got one, it has got numerous fat buds and after seeing your lovely specimen I can't wait for mine to open up. Hope they are as beautiful as yours. Lorna

I have 2 grow  in my allotment outside. There flowers are very nice. Why I grow them because I thought there fruits were passfruits. Later I found out that passion flower's fruits were not edible :o :o So this year I have 2 proper passion fruits that I bought from s'maket then sowed there seeds ;D ;D Hopefully I can have some passion fruits this year! ;D ;D
But the passion flowers still grow strongly outside. And I lived in Lancashire!Good luck to you!
