My passiflora is on a downward spiral... :(

11 years ago

I live in an apartment in NYC with nice east-facing light. My passiflora has a nice perch near the window and was a rock star through the winter, climbing up my wall and almost reaching my lofted ceiling. But now that summer has arrived it is slipping away! I love this plant and don't want to loose it, what shall I do?

Over the past couple of weeks, its started wilting, the tendrils it shoots off are drying up and turning brown, leaves are turning yellow or with brown tips, some leaves have little ragged edges like something might be eating it (although I've not seen any other signs of bugs and most leaves don't), while the edges of other leaves have gotten a wavy.

It's not been particularly hot save a few days, I've not really changed the frequency of my watering. I wanter a couple of times a week and try to be careful neither to overwater nor to let it get dry. I don't normally give it fertilizer, although I did once give it some Espoma Gro-Tone.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks.

PICS:

wavy leaves

torn leaves

brown tips

dried up tendrils

yellow leaves

general droopiness (ie it's falling down on top when it used to be perked up)
