Passionflower grows very quickly; the more spacious the pot, the faster new stems form.
What kind of pot is needed for passionflower
For abundant flowering, you need a pot with a diameter of at least 20 cm.
To obtain fruits, you need to have two plants, since all varieties of passionflower require cross-pollination.
How to grow
Sow the seeds to a depth of 1-2 cm, moisten well, cover the containers with film or glass and place in a warm place with a temperature of 23-25°C.
Ventilate the crops daily and moisten them as needed.
As soon as the first shoots appear, place the containers on a bright windowsill.
What conditions does passionflower like
Passionflower is a heat-loving plant, and a large amount of heat and light will only benefit it.
It is also necessary to remember that passionflower loves fresh air, especially in summer.
In the winter season, the main thing is not to allow the air temperature to drop below 10*C, which is quite consistent with home conditions.
Do I need to prune Passionflower
It is necessary to prune passionflower if the plant's branches become disproportionately elongated and the leaves stop increasing in size.
Nevertheless, they do this not only for the sake of actively increasing green mass, but also to maintain abundant flowering.
