Passiflora X Violacea | 3 Lt Pot

An exotic looking climber. Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: moderately fertile, moist, well-drained soil Rate of growth: fast-growing Flowering period: July to September Hardiness: half hardy (must have winter protection) The exquisite flowers of this fast growing climber start to appear in midsummer and their exotic appearance lend themselves well to more tropical or jungle-themed planting schemes. The plant will be happiest on a sheltered wall where it gets some protection from the worst of the winter weather. Alternatively grow it in a cool conservatory or greenhouse. Garden care: Choose three to five of the strongest shoots, tying them in to horizontal wires. Once the plant is established, cut back the flowered shoots immediately after flowering to within two or three buds of the permanent framework of the plant. In spring remove dead, misplaced or overcrowded stems.
