Temperamental versus other passion flowers |
| This is a slower growing Passiflora. I bought two, one online and one in store. This species seems to be pretty temperamental compared to other passionflowers. It has a small root structure and will react poorly if over watered. If you’re growing it in a pot I only recommend clay to allow aeration of the soil. That said with great care it will fruit nicely. Also on a side note from other buyers, cats seems to like to eat this plant so keep it out of reach. |
