Passiflora spacing - advice needed
« on: July 19, 2007, 10:30:49 »
Successfully germinated 6 passiflora from seed in the parce the parcel sown 25/4, now ranging from 9-18".  No idea as to the variety.

From my reading up, I don't want to put them in the ground as we're well known for our cold damp winters (heh !  and summers) so question is ..... how many to a black bucket ?

Cheers muchly peeps as always.

I have four of my assorted Passiflora Rampagio Thugga in Morrisons black buckets. It helps keep them under control - almost (though when I go out there in the mornings I'd swear the buckets have moved ever closer to the gate). Thank God they're not carniverous, otherwise I'd - AAAARRRGGHH!!
