Of all the flowering vines, Passion Flower bear some of the showiest blooms on earth. An easily grown plant, these look absolutely stunning in the garden or inside as a year-round houseplant. The blooms of Blue Passion Flower are multi-colored, with a mint scent much like the fruit of the pineapple guava.

This variety is extremely fast growing, and may grow up to 30' a season. It is also one of the hardiest passion flowers, dying back in colder climates but hardy to 10F. It will regrow from roots the following year. In warmer climates, the vine will grow and bloom throughout the year. In colder zones, these are best grown outside in containers and overwintered inside or grown as a year-round houseplant. Inside plants bloom intermittently throughout the winter months.
