Siam I told you that Eric would give you an answer. It looked a lot like incarnata but something just wasn't right.

Thank you so much for the vote of confidence, Karyn!!

1st off, it's just a guess, and it's likely wrong, though I think it is a species very closely related. Macdougal would be the absolute best to try to ID it. If I can get a more clear picture of the flower, I will send it to him for review....

2nd, Crystal is the wizard in this household, I am just an apprentice. I take a guess... she verifies. She does all the propagation... I write the tags. She suggests the perfect structure for growing a particular Passiflora... I just build it. Et cetera.
