Passion flower - Passiflora spp.

Date Photographed: 20/11/2012
Location: RHS Wisley
Resources: http://apps.rhs.org.uk/advicesearch/profile.aspx?pid=295
Notes: This was photographed in the glasshouse at RHS Wisley. It also made a surprise appearance in our front garden. It must have been planted years ago, because we have been here for 3 years and it has never shown itself. However by mid-summer the gravel under our front window was covered in its green stems and leaves and by the end of summer we had 3 or 4 flowers. If it continues to grow this year, then I'll provide it with some wire so it can grow up the front of our house next to the window.
