What a crap advice
I have grown passion flowers in pots (with pyramid-type trellis for years. I take them into a heated/well-lit garage for the winter, since they are the tropical type and not the maypop. The flowers will come on the new growth, if you cut the new growth, you've lost the flowers and the fruit. I noticed you did not show a sample of the vine in this video. If the vine gets too much to handle, you can cut it back considerably, but depending on when you cut them, you may not have any flowering or fruit. I normally will cut back, somewhat in the winter. When I do bring them out in late spring, I will fertilize. The passion vine I grow is not self-pollinating, which is why I have several. I hope this helps.
I had to remove the trellas and cut the passion flower vine all the down to a main trunk, will it come back after this or have I lost it forever?
just got a passion vine and happened go see your video. (2009) Hopefully you get this. I wanted to know if you can start a passion vine from cuttings?
I live in a snowy area in winter ....can I bring my passion flower in successfully? Any tips please???
Hi, yolanda! Huge request to show how to prune passion fruit on the schemes. Also, as you pointed at the expense of the grape vines in the 1st year. Of course, if possible. Thanks in advance.
