Ok..first new passi is Panda...it is a hybrid...and has a lovely high contrast flower...with the large dark eye looking center..

The next new one is Passiflora Piresii. ....this has got to be my favorite...will I ever tire of a brilliant .bright red with a really large flower...never...always flowering with a few flowers...it is perfect

I love the Passiflora Piresii - I'm also a fan of red flowers. Are you familiar with P. Aurantia? It starts out a cream color and morphs into red.

How do you overwinter these? Thanks.

Hi Donald, some are hardy in my zone 8 and stay outside and the fussier ones I overwinter in the greenhouse. A lot of them, like Blue Crown are hardy to zone 6.

Very, very nice - passifloras are becoming one of my favorites! Gordon, are yours in pots? I'm a fan of reds, too, Anne.

Betsy...i grow on my roof top so i guess mostly containers..

Hey Gordon,
Fancy meeting you here ;-) I have the red passi vitifolia almost similar to your Piressi but it has a white center . I have about 12 passis in various stages . Still blooming/fruiting , blooming, bloomed, about to bloom and the rest are young plants of about a year and 2 from seeds still on the germination stage. I have acquired some of them through a swap I did on FB, and some are from the Florala swaps and Carol Habig then the rest I purchased. If you would be interested, we can swap rooted cuttings of your passis with mine but we have to wait until Spring for it. It takes forever to have them root and with the cold season coming upon us, it may not be a good idea to do it.

Here are some of my passis that has bloomed/blooming
Passiflora edulis purple possum


Passiflora temptation x temptation


Passiflora thuraia


Passiflora incense


Passiflora vitifolia

Those are all very cool. I had never realized that there were red ones and the color changing!! Sweet. I am impressed!
