Passiflora aka Passion vine

in life •  7 years ago 

Lately I've been growing passion vines in order to grow fruit. I have found out so far the variations Incarnata and Lady margeret that i have are self sterile. I recently bought Edulis also known as possum purple which is self fertile, can pollinate the other species of passion vines in order to get them to bear fruit. The best way i have found is to take a ear swab on a not so windy day and rub the male anthers on the stigma when it is humid to keep the pollen from falling.
