(Passiflora caerulea) Perennial. A hardy, fast-growing vine that is perfect for growing along trellises and walls with its lush, attractive foliage and ornate, fragrant flowers which have snowy white petals with a captivating blue crown. Bright orange ovate fruits, known as Passionfruit, follow the blooms and are filled with deep red, flavorful pulp. These fruits are enjoyed fresh or used to enhance drinks, adding a unique twist to beverages. Moreover, the flowers and leaves are utilized in tea-making, renowned for their stress relieving properties. P. caerulea is one of the hardiest passionflowers and can withstand temperatures down to 10°F, dying back in colder climates but promptly regenerating from its roots the following year. In warmer regions, where frost is scarce, the vine remains evergreen, offering continuous growth and blooming throughout the year.
To Grow:
Seeds have a hard, stubborn seed coat that requires pretreatment prior to sowing. Soak seeds for 24 hours in warm water. Sow in flats or pots filled with moist, sterile soil keeping soil temperature at 75-85°F. Cool temperatures can slow or cease germination, which is naturally slow and erratic.
