About Passiflora caerulea
This vigorous climber to 16′ (5m) when grown outdoors can reach 33′ (10m) when grown as a conservatory plant. The slightly scented flowers bloom from summer to early autumn and all year long in a conservatory. The flowers are borne singly approx. 4″(10cm) wide with sepals and petals white or pinkish white. The central area of the flower is 2″(5cm) across with blue spiky filaments, white in the middle and purple at the base. The fruits are edible but lack flavor. In early spring, remove any frost damaged growth then prune side shoots to about 6″ (15cm) from the main framework.
