Passiflora loefgrenii
“Garlic Passionfruit”

Possibly the most exquisite Passion vine in cultivation! Insanely beautiful, 4” across, violet-magenta blooms wear a crown of rich purple-blue filaments topped with prominent golden anthers. Extra coolness factor: Borne from Summer to Fall, the flowers face skywards at the end of swooping “U” shaped stems to gaze upward. Easy & evergreen to 10-15’, it can be pruned smaller & grown in a large container. Foliage is evergreen & three-lobed with a matte finish. Garlic flavored fruit – ha! It’s overwintered fine here in Richmond, but protect from frosts. Rich, composty soil for maximum passion. From Brazil. Best in part sun, it thrives with average but even moisture & should not dry out for too long. Top dress with compost annually in Spring for best appearance & performance.
