Hi All,

After recently been successful in germination of passiflora alata, i am thinking of trying some more passifloras from seed. I have mild winters usually around 5-10 C and because i will be growing in pots, i can bring them indoors in winters. I live in a subtropical semi-arid climate and summers are very hot like 40-50C during May June followed by monsoon. I would prefer fragrant flowering passies which have the potential to flower in first few years (heard they might flower as late as 10 yrs) and relatively easy to grow from seed. My passiflora incense flowers almost whole summers for me and i would prefer passies which are not once-only-flowering. Not interested in fruits BTW.

I have prepared a small list of some species (and some hybird) which are available from the vendor. Can someone confirm which one of these meet my requirements (or does not meet at all) ?

- Passiflora loeffgrenii corupa

- Passiflora ambigua

- Passiflora actinia

- Passiflora nitida

- Passiflora purple companion

- Passiflora Palenquensis

- Passiflora ligularis

- Passiflora maliformis

- Passiflora Tripartia Var. Mollisima (I heard banana passie prefers cool summers?)

- Passiflora Racemosa Buzios

- Passiflora amethyst

Thanks in advance.
