Planting Instructions:

  • - Best planted in spring or early summer for optimal root establishment
  • - Space plants 3-5 feet apart to allow for mature growth and vine spread

Soil Preparation:

  • - Ideal soil pH: 6.1-7.5
  • - Prefers well-drained, moderately fertile soil; tolerates sandy or loamy soil types

Watering Specifics:

  • - Water thoroughly when first planted, keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged
  • - Once established, water regularly during dry periods to maintain moisture, but allow the soil to dry out between waterings

Fertilizer Type:

  • - Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring to promote vigorous growth and flowering
  • - Avoid excessive feeding, as too much nitrogen can result in more foliage and fewer flowers

Pruning and Training:

  • - Prune lightly in early spring to remove dead or damaged growth
  • - Train the vine to climb on a trellis or fence for optimal support and appearance

Additional Pest Management:

  • - Passiflora is generally pest-resistant, though it may attract aphids or caterpillars; monitor and treat as needed
  • - Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal issues like powdery mildew

Blooming Indicators:

  • - Blooms from early summer through fall with large, intricate flowers in shades of purple, blue, or white

Temperature Tolerance:

  • - Hardy in USDA zones 6-10, tolerates heat but may require protection in colder climates

Companion Plants for Passiflora:

  • - Roses: Complement Passiflora with their bold blooms and contrasting textures
  • - Lavender: Provides a fragrant, drought-tolerant companion that pairs well with Passiflora’s exotic blooms
  • - Salvia: Offers vertical spikes of blue or purple flowers that add contrast to Passiflora’s unique flowers
  • - Clematis: Another climbing vine, which complements Passiflora’s vining habit and adds additional blooms
  • - Echinacea: Adds vibrant daisy-like flowers that enhance the exotic beauty of Passiflora

So Healthy!

My passion flower vines arrived in fine shape! Each time I order from Grow Joy, I'm impressed by the excellent packaging and gorgeous plants! I'll be back.

Beauiful

Planted them (2) in 5-gallon containers (pros oil, earthworm casting, vermiculite, and compost) with poles and ran strings between them. It's been about a month. Even with cold (44 deg) nights, I have my first flower. :-) Wish I could post a pic.

Growing fast

This plant came is great condition and is thriving! Every day it appears to get growing almost before my eyes. Can't wait for blooms!

Beautiful plant

The plant arrived healthy and bloomed soon after. I tried growing Maypop from seed and failed so I’m glad to have it. I’ve transferred to a larger pot while I think about the best spot for ground planting. It is growing and about to bloom again.

Maypops are doing great!

Thank you, GrowJoy, for the wonderful Maypops! All three are healthy and happy in their new homes. I’ll send a pic of the native garden to info@growjoy.com! Butterflies, birds and bees all send you high marks!
