Thanks Garya

Oh cool, passionflower family!

Family:Passifloraceae

Hi

I personally have several names for them mostly with four letters lol They sprout in every conceivable location worst in potted plants where they quickly outgrow the main plant They sprout ,even flower in the rain gutters !!lol

gary

You must live somewhere warm then, never see them here

Gary, they should be native to your area. I've got Turnera subulata in the garden, they have a nicer flower. But they do have a tendency to become weedy. Fortunately our dry season keeps them under control.

Hi

Native or not they're here to stay lol Besides the rain gutters they will sprout in the smallest of cracks in cement real pest in orchid pots .bird bath, moldings above doors. Have even had them sprout in a bit of dust in the truck bed lol

There is a variety that has MUCH larger flowers as well as a black eye which I believe is a hybrid Very attractive so naturally it's delicate lol

Trying to grow one into a standard Requires a strong stake and constant removal of sprouts at the base so going with a rounded bush look lol

It does attract giant swallowtail butterflies and Hummingbirds .which probably explains why I have so many seeds?? lol gary

These are the 2 colours of the subulata I have:

Beautiful
