Congrats hopefully you will get some viable seeds. You really seem to have a knack with crossing varieties.
I give up on Lady Margaret lol. She just hates me. Every other year I lose one. It is the only passie I manage to kill and it is the same thing everytime: It goes like this: First it grows great and then I over winter it with all the other passies and it seems to get weak or something. None of the others do this. It will grow out normally at first then after a few months it starts putting out weak, light green growth that gradually dies. This time the stem at the bottom looked rotten or corky-like. I saw a lot of ants around the pot but not sure if they ate it. I didnt see many inside the pot when I dumped it. It wasn't overwatered or anything but the roots just died. I wonder what the deal is lol. Got any tips on LM?

LM's been somewhat quirky for me as well. I've had decent luck with cuttings--I have one growing great in a hanging basket that's bloomed a couple of times, and another I put in the ground as an experiment to see if its incarnata ancestry is enough to bring it back after a z8b winter. But the parent plant--the one I'm getting the fruit on--is fairly anemic. It's growth isn't as rampant as I think it should be, and the leaves have an unnerving habit of browning at the edges and getting "crisp" as if it were dying of thirst or something. It *does* seem to like more water than my other passis, but I haven't really been able to figure out the conditions it really wants.

As for ants, they're good for passis. There's a good deal of research that's been done on co-evolution of the species. Ants harvest nectar from the nectaries of the passiflora, and keep the plant relatively free of harmful insects. They tend to avoid caterpillars, tho, so it's not a perfect arrangement. But ants in general aren't cause for concern on a passi.

Hey Congrats!!!
I have a small LM that someone gave me. I put it out in the garden and it just sat there..LOL I potted it back up and it is starting to put on new growth... The other one I have seems to like it here but hasn't bloomed yet...

That's interesting about the ants. I have a number of them on quite a few varieties and I know there's no aphids or other soft bodied insects on the plants that they're farming. They are all over the closed buds also. It's the same thing with my peonies, loads of ants just collecting the fluid that's on the buds before they open.

Good luck with those seeds, could be interesting. My LM blooms like crazy but I've never had any fruit develop.
