A new hybrid Passiflora...
« on: September 17, 2006, 04:12:38 PM »
This plant comes from seed obtained from Tradewinds fruit a few years ago.
They have no idea who the parents are but it has turned out to be a great Passiflora Tacsonia hybrid. I have been crossing the pollen from this one with my Passiflora tripartita var. Mollissima. Hopefully I will eventually see some fruit and seed.

Cheers,

Nice flower. I'd like to get more passifloras too some day. Right now though I have enough tropicals to bring in for the winter.
