Description
The Blue Passionflower (Passiflora caerulea) is a fast-growing climber that produces striking, crown-shaped blue‑white flowers. It is the hardiest species in its genus and can survive winter outdoors in mild, sheltered conditions. After warm summers, it bears orange, edible but not very aromatic fruits.
Care instructions
Place the plant in a sunny, sheltered spot with well‑drained soil and provide a trellis or support for climbing. In harsh climates grow it in a pot and overwinter it in a bright, frost‑free location. Prune heavily in spring (around week 15 of the year) to encourage vigorous new growth and continuous summer flowering.
