How To Grow

Excellent pest and disease resistance

Resistant to honey fungus and generally resistant to disease in general. Watch out for red spider mites, mealybugs and whitefly and treat by wiping leaves with a soft moist cloth or gentle misting if they occur. MORE

Water in dry spells

Keep the soil moist and make sure to water regularly during dry spells.

Full sun to partial shade

Position where the plant will receive at least 4-6 hours of sunlight everyday during summer and spring. This variety can handle some partial shade where it receives its light as dappled shade.

Any well-drained soil

Passiflora will flourish in most soils including chalk, loam, clay and sand. It prefers moist, well drained soil with a pH level of 6.5-7.5.

Feeding not required

Feeding is not necessary for passion flowers and can encourage excessive growth at the expense of flowers. ?v=1613301045
