Hello All.

This is a Passilfora coccinea that I started from seed about five years ago. It has always looked pretty much like this.

It has been in the garden all summer. It has been in direct sun. It has been in part shade. It has been under grow lights. I have kept it on the dry side. I have kept it on the wet side. I have fertilized it. I have not fertilized it for months. It has never had bugs of any kind. I have misted it daily. I have talked to it. I have tried to reason with it. My next step is to take it out for dinner and and an evening at the theatre (Little Shop of Horrors is playing at a local venue...a good choice?).

I am a sucker for red flowers and would love to see this plant bloom. Any thoughts on what I can do differently?

Thank you.

Erick
