Felicia - I'd rather have seeds than a cutting. Thank you so much!

Adrienne - Don sent me some fruit with the tiny little seeds in it. I am drying them now. Save them for the RR! Since the Zebra Longwings prefer that plant over any other Passiflora, then it is something that we should share for sure!!! Thanks so much!!

Donna - Awesome! I have seeds for several good plants. But I don't have seeds for as much as I wished to have been able to harvest at this time.

Here is a fruit from my Maypop vine. I planted the entire coverage on my east fence from about 10 seeds 2 years ago. I was told it blooms the second year. Well, wouldn't ya know .... it is now blooming. Didn't bloom at all in the Spring or Summer. I was out there looking at it to consider trimming it all back for the third time this year because it is OUT OF CONTROL again!! And that was when I saw all the blooms and the fruit. Boy oh boy! was I ever surprised. I never even saw the blooms that produced the fruit! It is loaded with flowers right now. But the flowers are not as purple as I was thinking they would be. The blooms tend to blend in with the vines somewhat. I think that is why I didn't see them.
