You really should do a Sticky with links to threads that gives good information about growing passiflora. One of the best and most comprehensive stickies I've seen is the one in the Morning Glory Forum:

I know it would help me considerably as far as basic information about these beautiful flowers. I'm at a loss here.

sounds good to me paul
thanks, X! =] i agree
I came over looking for a sticky. I have several newbie questions about my passi and thought there would be a sticky with some links I could use. Oh well I'll just start a thread and ask. LOL
I'd like a sticky too.
I'd like a sticky also...I particulary like info on what's the best fertilizing routine.
Well, If you are willing to do some research so am I. We can decide on the specific information we need then do searches of the passiflora forum to see if there is info already there then make note of the address to the thread. Then start putting it together.
I'd say start with the following information that would be needed. Once we get our list, we can divide it up amongst ourselves so we won't be duplicating searches. Here is a start to the info that would be good for a sticky ..
How to start seeds
Growing habits
Feeding
Insects and diseases
Any takers?

Well, I was going to volunteer for the feeding/fertilizing but wanted to do a little research first. Well, I'm more confused than I was before. I've seen recommedations for a 10-5-20?, a 10-10-10?, None..just add compost, do and don't feed in fall, nothing I feel is consistent.
One thing I have seen that is consistent is to keep mulch around the roots. I knew that, and do that with mine. I'm not an "experienced' passi grower...some of mine are growing flowering great, some are growing not flowering so great. ( lady Margaret)..so wonder if some of our more experienced passi growers could help out w/ this.
That's great - I'll see what I can find on cultivation.
Mjsponies - Feeding
Xeramtheum - Cultivation
Post the threads you find here and we'll put it together once we have what we want.
Anyone else?
