Some passionflowers:
tacsonia hybrid - we have been growing this as P. ‘Coral Seas’ but it probably isn’t!
P. ‘Michael’ - has done well this year.
An open pollinated hybrid of P. ‘La Morellina’ - really like this one.
P. ‘Vivacious Velvet’ our amethystina caerulea hybrid - great scent.

This is a graft I made last year showing new shoots.
Tacsonia(P.mixta?) grafted onto a P.caerulea to provide stronger roots and growth.

More winter #passiflora
Firstly P. x violacea ‘Atropurpurea’ that we acquired from the legendary John Vanderplank when he visited us this summer and a tacsonia hybrid, possibly P. x exoniensis, with its shockingly pink flowers. Both will have prominent greenhouse positions next year.

I germinated an old seed produced in September 2022.
This was a selfed fruit from an established tacsonia I grew which died a few years ago due to extreme cold so hoping to re-establish it in the greenhouse :-)

🌱 As we stampede towards the shortest day of the year greenhouse passionflowers are struggling. A couple that are thriving in cool &duller conditions are P. ‘Annette’ & the tacsonia supersection including this bright pink one we have been growing as P x exoniensis & first bud on a newly acquired one

The tacsonia supersection of #passiflora contains some superb plants. Naming is very complicated so just enjoy. These can take down to about freezing so need greenhouse over winter. From February they grow vigorously and take over! They also hate heat so we bed them out in a shady spot for summer

I am becoming more fascinated with the tacsonia super section of #passiflora. This group has wonderfully coloured flowers. This is a new one that came to us as P. antioquiensis which it clearly isn’t. This one is vigorous,having arrived as a small cutting in September become huge over winter

Our extended rope swag thingy for tacsonia #passiflora is starting to fill up. In an ambitious move we have doubled the length of the structure & quadrupled the number of plants. We have 2 of this downward hanging Barbie-Pink & 2 of the orangey form that Dawn showed off on Gardeners World in 2024

The tacsonia supersection of #passiflora are a brilliant group with spectacular hummingbird pollinated flowers. They also grow on through winter in a heated house. This form bought as P. antioquiensis (it’s not!) is quite similar to our P. ‘Coral Seas’ last pic & will be bedded out for summer
