Description
Passionflower is a fast-growing perennial vine and is a hybrid of unknown origin. It employs tendrils to grab hold of adjacent shrubs, structures,s and other supports to lift itself to heights of 8-12 ft. The large serrated leaves grow 5-6 in wide by 6 to 8 in long. They typically have three to five lobes and are arranged alternately on the stem with flowers and branches emerging from the axil. All of the passion flowers have beautifully complex blossoms and Soi Fah Passion Flower is no exception. These have 2-3 in diameters and are composed of 10 white sepals arranged in a shallow bowl shape above which is an arranged fringe of purple and white filaments, called the corona. In the center is the white fleshy stigma surrounded by five stamens.
Passiflora incarnata plant care and instructions
Morning sunlight of 3 - 6 hours a day is ideal for flowering and plants grow well in bright light for the rest of the day. The soil should be well-drained, fertile, and rich in organic content for growing Passion Flower plants. Poke your finger/plain small stick into the soil to check the moisture. Apply 3 cups(approx.150ml) of water when the topsoil (1-2 inches) in the pot feels dry to touch. Do not overwater the plant. As a rule of thumb, water the plants thoroughly in summer and reduce watering in the winter and rainy seasons. Water should be applied preferably in the morning or evening. Before application of fertilizer loosen the topsoil without disturbing the roots of the plant so it can uptake the nutrients and moisture easily. Apply organic fertilizer once a month during the main growing season (February-March) Apply water immediately after application of fertilizer. Remove dead, infected, or damaged plant parts and discard them away from the plants. For any insect attack or disease, you can use Neem oil, Eucalyptus oil, or Citrus oil spray for primary treatment. Do not overwater the plant especially when the pot doesn't have a drainage hole. Avoid applying water on flowers and leaves because it may cause fungus infection.
