Hi Guy's
Passion fruit has a lovely flower! and I really enjoy eating them! so I decided to have a go at growing some from seeds.
Any advice on passion fruit? I took a cutting a couple of years ago and had no success, it grew and flowered but crappy fruit and not much at all, I figured the plant I took the cutting from was too old, Like me!
I heard they only fruit for a few years?
So this year I had one passion fruit from the super market left over, I let it dry out for a few months, then I broke it open and spreed the seeds in this pot.
It's Ned Kelly passion fruit seeds, they are packed together looking at the pot, any advice on when to transplant? they are small I only want about 3 plant, also any other advive to help me would be much appreciated!

could be different now but they used to be grafted. different root stock to fruit stock.
so if you grow from seed might not work. i’d buy saplings.
same with lemons.

Yeah they are still grafted.
They take the black/yellow/red and graft them onto blue passionflower, which tolerates frosts and other conditions better.
If the roots begin shooting runners it's best to chop them off as they won't produce edible fruit, the flowers are nice though.
Passionfruit is a major pest out in the bush, they strangulate all the native plants, especially banana passionfruit.

yeah and after time they revert to root stock or that becomes dominant and get shit fruit but still nice flowers.

Ok so I know it's not a flower just yet but I got this Stanhopea orchid about 6yrs ago and this is it's 1st time to flower so I'd thought I'd share. Typically called the upside down orchid bcoz they bloom from the bottom. I put it in a v in a tree and have been training it out to flower..

Pretty as fuck but my sinus hates it. House is surrounded by it. Beautiful time of the year though.
