Mark, they are all simply beautiful. How did you keep the fritillary cats at bay?

Moab, UT(Zone 6b)

Mark, they're all just plain beautiful. P.Triloba is the MOST wild in appearance. Never saw such striping. Great post. How big is your yarden? That's a lot of passion. LOL ~Blooms

Bushland, TX(Zone 6a)

Mark,these are just fantastic,which ones are everblooming passies?
Love the coral color of the peresii.and the standleyi.

Frog, well, it's hard to do. I have a certain, yucky area of plants where I throw all the Catapillars I find. lol They do get in the greehouse where I root my small plants and chomp them sometimes.

Blooms, believe it or not, I don't have a very big yard. If I did, these plants would most all be in the ground and doing what they really love to do, grow and flower. lol
thanks,

Tropic, trying to think here. The Donna Brigham blooms most of the year here, but none of the others in this thread do. I will have something open nearly year round here, but even the coolest bloomers will have times where they are just too cold.
thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark, and welcome to DG. Your passi's are beautiful and most of them are one's I have never seen before. I also took a tour through your photo album that you posted on another thread. Lovely photo's you have for sure.

I absolutely love the P. Donna Brigham. I've never seen a passi of that color or form. Maybe it's one I should acquire, especially since it's sounds just like my name....Donna Brickman. How about that, huh? hehe

Donna

Chariton, IA(Zone 5b)

Beautiful pictures. Wish I lived in a warm climate so I didn't have to lug planters/pots in and out all the time.

Floresville, TX(Zone 9a)

All beautiful plants Mark. The triloba is especailly impressive.

Ventura, United States(Zone 10b)

Beautiful, Mark! I've actually seen (and drooled) over your Passifloras before over at GardenWeb. It's nice to see you here also.

San Diego, CA

Clare, I know, I saw you in here. lol So, how are you doing?
Mark

Austell, GA(Zone 7a)

Awesome!! I am drooling. I have never seen some of those passies. Well done, bravo!!

Ventura, United States(Zone 10b)

Mark, which ones, in your opinion, have the best fragrance?

San Diego, CA

Clare, I love the smell of the Platyloba, it is one of my favorites. I'm trying to remember, but it seemed the Macrocarpa was pretty decent, but when you have a platyloba in full bloom, in a greehouse especially, that is tops to me.
Mark

Ventura, United States(Zone 10b)

Thanks, Mark. That is good to know!

Needville, TX(Zone 9a)

Gosh, all the pictures are just beautiful.....

Saint Petersburg, FL(Zone 9b)

Dang Ric, I might need to get some from you. lol J/k Just jelous when someone else's plants are larger than mine. I have to keep most of mine in pots, not much planting space here. Thanks again

MOST AWESOME!!! Man I'm so envious, my growing season has just recently ended and my living room is just full of plant's. Very depressing. Do you think I could talk you into mailing me a few cuttings of some of those beauties? I'll pay whatever the cost plus some, I'd just new fresh shoots wrapped in something moist like paper towels. That way they usually get here in good enough shape to where I can re-cut and put them in cubes and humidity domes. I thought I knew my Passie's well, you have a few I have never heard of before and they all are just incredible. You California residents just make me green with envy since you have such a long growing season that just seems never ending. I'll have to take a picture of my livingroom for you guys, you'd think I'm insane. I have a 1000 watt metal halide grow lamp hanging from the ceiling next to the television!!!LOL You can see the light from 2 blocks down the street! I don't have the luxury of a greenhouse yet, with my wheelchair being so wide I think it would have to be a big 1 just so I could get a lane wide enough to pass through. I will get 1 built 1 day when funds and time allow, the lights will have to get me by in the mean time.
Please consider my cutting request, I'd appreciate it more than you know and will gladly share anything I have you might want. I'd be happy to send rooted plants or whatever you would like.
Thank you and LOVELY pictures, please keep them coming.
JD
