Meet the Passiflora – an exotic climber that surprises you with its spectacular flowers and lush growth. Whether you are looking for a unique houseplant or a stunning outdoor plant for your balcony, patio, or terrace, the Passiflora brings a tropical vibe and a touch of elegance to any space.

Origin

The Passiflora, also known as the passion flower, originates from South America. This fast-growing plant is famous for its mesmerising flowers with a distinctive star-like appearance. Varieties such as Passiflora caerulea and Passiflora 'Constance Eli' are ideal as outdoor potted plants, while other types thrive indoors as well.

Care

Want to get the best out of your Passiflora? Place it in a bright spot with at least a few hours of direct sunlight per day. The more sun it gets, the more abundantly it will bloom.

• Water: Keep the soil slightly moist, especially during the growing season. However, make sure excess water can drain easily to prevent root rot. In winter, the plant requires less water.
• Soil: Use well-draining, nutrient-rich potting soil. A bit of compost or organic fertiliser will support healthy growth and abundant flowering.
• Hardiness: Some Passiflora varieties, such as Passiflora caerulea, are reasonably hardy and can tolerate light frost. If temperatures drop below -5°C, it is advisable to protect the plant with fleece. Other varieties do better indoors when the temperature falls.
• Support: Passiflora is a climbing plant that loves to attach itself to a trellis, pergola, or support structure. As a houseplant, it can be trained to grow around a decorative frame for a playful effect.
