The Passiflora parritae x tarminiana‘Oaklandia’ Passion flower vine is starting to bloom again.
Since I have no experience growing passion flower vines, I thought it might just produce leaves in the late fall and winter.
There are now new buds on the vine and the first one blooming is very lovely, providing vibrant color over one of the back gates.
There were many visits last month to the vine by gulf fritillary butterflies.
But I haven't seen any caterpillars.
It's too late in the year.
