Tropical Fruit Discussion / Anyone growing passiflora incence for the fruit?
« on: June 22, 2023, 04:07:34 AM »
I recently got 2 of those and i have some questions:
- is the fruit any good?
-are the plants self fertile, i assume they could be pollinated with caerulea pollen?
- does the species need winter dormancy?
- any growing advices are wellcomed !
I am planning on having them in pots and taking them in the basement for the winter, but i also want to know if the vines will tollerate year round warmth, as i could plant one in the greenhouse.
I ultimately want to keep alive the aboveground parts trough winter, so i can hopefully have a more mature vine in spring that will start to bloom sooner. So basically i wonder, does the aboveground part die every season, no matter the climate, or could it be kept alive, given that the temperatures are favorable?
