Temps have dropped several times in the teens,and this seems to prove a good evergreen passiflora for zones 7 to 8 or higher,being I'm, zone 6.Even my hardy incarnatas have bitten the dust
for this year after the first hard freeze.
Long fingered leaf Caerulea
Here it is again climbing up a pampas grass,still showing it's evergreen hardiness.
Don, yep, that is a hardy one. It is definitely a good grower. I had to stop growing it because it was taking over everything in sight! I was afraid of new ones popping up from the roots as well. I have to avoid those when I can here because there is no freeze to keep the agressive vines in bounds, but it is perfect for areas which restrain it a little!
I am in zone 5, no way am I leaving this outside. It bloomed just a few weeks ago, now suddenly it has spidermites. Hate them danged things! Had Vitifolia right beside it, so......... I am spraying like crazy, looks like I may have got them stopped.
Dawng spidermites are ruthless this year,have to spray weekly for a month to get them all and there eggs.
M y brugs really had a bad case of them this winter,but I think I have them gone.
Nice to see how hardy it is!
This morning still green,12* outside,brutal cold windchill 3*.
Looks like it might get cold down there tonite!
We had 9"of snow. Supposed to get -11. Guess it's going all the way to Florida. Houston 71 today, so Susie you may be safe. Stay warm Don.
