I had the same vine last winter, but it died when the temperatures dropped below 45 so I had to purchase it again from Logee's. This winter, I have it in my portable greenhouse, which never gets below 50, and it is blooming inside the greenhouse. The vine itself is only a couple of feet long but is growing quickly. It has the same square stems as P. alata "Ruby Glow," and the flower size is the same also. This is the most cold sensitive of all the passifloras that I grow, and I have about a dozen different varieties. This passiflora must be brought indoors in all locations which are not tropical. It does get to be a large vine in the right conditions, and it does bear the huge fruit that Don posted when it is pollinated. |
