Sweet Calabash is a vigorous, tendril vine with very fragrant and large, red, blue and white flowers with a prominent fringe of red coronal filaments. Passiflora maliformis is a woody vine that will gently twine around supporting structures. In tropical climates, it will flower all year round. It is an exotic tropical that is sure to draw attention, and is ideal planted around a patio where onlookers can see it's magnificent flowers!
In Canada, many Passion Flowers are not hardy over winter (especially the ones with the red coloration), so we grow those varieties in pots and take them indoors for the winter months, and grow them in a sunny window! Note, if you are from a colder climate, you may also be interested in the Hardy Blue Passion Flower that we offer!
