I have a habit of loosing tags...sometimes its me,sometimes it's my creatures that do it
I have no clue what this one is,or who sent it to me,this was its first bloom
Passiflora ID's
And this one I think I missed seeing it bloom,but was kinda sure it was white.....
All of a sudden one day I see these purple things hanging off of it...like an idiot I thought they were buds...not fruit...LOL
also ,how do I know when the fruit is ripe.....and what ones are edible?
I would say that it is one of the foetidas called ciliata. I have pictures of various foetidas and ciliata is the only one that I see with leaves having that distinctive edge. And the flower is the same as yours.
Where did you get it?
I have no clue,it could have been Tim,Susie,Sue or who knows,like I said ,I'm real bad about tagging stuff....
Oh,someday,in the far away future I will get myself together and keep track of this stuff
But I have these great plant tags now,that appear to be peacock proof,so I want to start IDing everything......
I have some others I need to ID too,they were started from seed from Chilterns
CC, the second one looks like capsularis. Did it have little white flowers? You might have got that one from me at the roundup.
Sue ,I don't remember what color the flowers were but like I said it sticks in my mind that they were white.
I couldn't remember which ones I got from who.
I'll mark the 2nd one with capsularis and thanks to flicker I will mark the first one foetidas ciliata
crestedchik, here are two links I use alot to help me ID diffrent Passies, and it has some information on the fruits...
I love passies and am collecting a few so I'm not expert and need all the help I can get...
Hope this helps you......... :o)

The 2nd is P. rubra, it has white flowers, and red fruit.
Is that what it is, Tim? Lol!! My fruits are red too and I wondered when I turned up photos of rose colored fruit on the web. I'll be darned!!
Better tell Cala... I got the seeds from her :)
How can you tell when the fruit is ripe? They feel hard to me... not very fleshy.
Poppysue, I got it as capsularis, but Tim IDed it for me as rubra too, but I'd already sent out seeds.
The seeds are ripe when the pod splits open. You have to get them fast, I think every critter around likes those seeds!
My fruit is down right PURPLE,is it bruised?
Karyn,
No, it's normal. Some of mine are like yours while other are not as dark, all depends on how much light.
