Looks like a Passi to me..but really have no Idea who it is or where the seeds came from...
Grew it last year from seeds and over wintered it inside...then put it outside and it bloomed last night...
the leaves look like 2 of my other Passi's..but it was suggested it might be a Clematis...
didn't plant any Clem seeds...

I'm new to Passi's but my Lady Margaret's bloom only lasted one day..
The first bloom is still open and a second one opened up tonight...
Leaves...
Thanks for any help... ^_^
lilsis....definitely a Passi....there are several white Passi's , .possibly White Caerulea, White Wedding are common one's , Constance Elliott, Quasar, might have to keep looking/comparing at pics of bloom and leaf structure. Anyone else have any thoughts ? It's lovely.
Mj The baby Lady Margaret you sent me is blooming her head off..
I just love her and makes me think of my mom everytime I look at her...
oh that's great ! Is is gorgeous. Don't forget to take her in for the winter !
It looks like my white P. incarnata that is blooming right now.
Thanks Kay..
This does look like it...

lilsis, you should add it to the plantfiles
I don't think incarnata "alba" is listed.
It says it's hardy in zones 5-9 but I wouldn't dare put it in the ground..
maybe if I get some seeds i'll try then......I played around with the paint brush last night and couldn't believe all the pollen on the buds..It opens/blooms at night...not like Lady Margaret who opens in the morning here..
I'll go see how complicated it is...LOL
lilsis,
You should add to it to the plant files, just the regular incarnta is there.
I'll trade ya "something" LOL, if you can get some cuttings rooted.

I've been trying but it won't except the Genus Passiflora
keeps saying
The genus name is not in our checklist. Did you mean....Passiflora or Ptiloria?
It said to contact them if I was having trouble so I did and sent them all the info and the link to the website..if they put it in i'll post pic's..
When Kay said P Incarnata I remembered I bought seeds from Summer Hill
But for Purple ones not White/Alba
maybe a white seed snuck in...LOL
I have 5 seeds left...LOL can't guarantee they'll be white...
MJ later on i'll try to root some cuttings..But I really suck at it....LOL
She's just starting to bloom now and is still putting out buds...
So i'd rather wait a while and enjoy her...
I'll let you know how I do...
Maybe the seed packet was mismarked ?
Ok on the cuttings, that would be great !
Keep in mind: when planted in the ground, this vine spreads rampantly via underground runners. I keep them mowed down, but there will be LOTS of runner plants, out 20' from the plant!
No problem, we have have a riding mower, stray vines get mowed, I've got several different Passi's but no white.
Added,,,now just need to add the info..
