PURPLE PASSION FLOWER
Passiflora incarnata
SKU: 56-005
Description
This is the hardiest Passion Flower that we carry, and probably the hardiest available! These exotic-looking flowers are amazingly wavy, and have a stunning blue-purple color. Plants will gently cling to surrounding structures or shrubbery, and climb up to 20'! Flowers appear in summer, and continue throughout the growing season.
Type: Hardy climbing vine
Hardiness zones: 5-9, sometimes zone 4 if protected in winter
Location: Sun or part sun
Seeds per pack: 5 Rare seeds
Note: Ornamental use only. These seeds and/or plants are poisonous.
Germination: Start these seeds right away to preserve viability, no matter the time of year. Sow the seeds just under the surface of a sterile seed-start mix, and water in. Then cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 7-8 weeks. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold-moist stratification period they are then brought back to room temperature (20-22 °C, 68-72 °F) for them to germinate. Germination is generally 60-120 days after the warming period, though it can vary.
