Hi Clemen and Gordon, what's beautiful passi! Is that Lady Margaret?
Yes my lady and she is loaded with fruit...this is gordon's thread though although our friend is cool............COOLLLL...right gordon..
How are you Kim...you know the passi I sent you, mine is putting buds now, how many years has it been? GOrdon let it DIED, lol...
Clemen, please refresh my memory. It has been a few years, and it has never bloomed for me. I took good care of it. This year, however, dispite the good care. It got infested with mealybugs. And because I gardening to help raise butterflies. I couldnot use chemical to treat the infestation. So I've cut it back pretty severely. As a result? Still no flowers. I'm forever indebted to you for that beauty. The vine is really large. It's about my thumb in diameter (the vine at the base).
No fears Kim, mine it is just starting to bloom this year, this will be her fourth season...I am thrilled even though I will not see fruit, I know it, weather here is getting bad, not this week, but last and so will the next...Gordon can tell you. Although Gordon is at a better position than me, although we are close, temps in Brooklyn seem to be a lot warmer than LI, where I am...
Gordon, that's gorgeous! I just gor one of those but I won't see flowers til next year. Can't wait!
Sweet flower Gordon wonder why it took so long to flower glad you have them now.
Your Crimson Tears bloom is just lovely!
This is a beautiful passiflora Gordon! If you ever get this puppy to set seeds, I'd sure like to know about it and buys some from you! :)
Any day now, I expect my 'Temptation x Temptation' to peek above the soil line :)
nope..not a hint of seeds from it.. how about a cutting.. did you try a seed soak for the T X T seeds... I've heard a bleach & H2O2 soak helps..
These seeds take time can't be in any hurry fresh usually sprout quick older seeds take time or not at all. I bought the grandilla from cowboyflower man on ebay 4.50 what I have here is a cross can't tell by leaves the stalk is square 4 sides to it. So Passionflowerz you want one cheap enough
