Passiflora sanguinolenta

A perfectly beautiful vine for a smaller space, smaller garden or even a container. Moderate, vigorous & free flowering, P. sanguinolenta only grows to about 9’ - much less than most other Passionvines. From Spring thru Fall it bears its lovely 1.5” rosey-pink blooms with peak bloom in mid-Summer. The dark coral buds are a show unto themselves, held upright & looking like candles nestled in the foliage. The leaves are fun, too, each looking like a pair of butterfly wings. Easy & fairly fast growing, it makes a fascinating patio or small trellis climber, you can even grow it indoors on a windowsill in a 5” pot! For you zonal denial folks, it’s reported to withstand short periods of 0° F, but we wouldn’t really know about that – brrr!
