Planting & Care
1. Planting: This plant needs full to part sun in sandy, well-draining soil, and will require a trellis or fence to climb.
Choose a location where your vine is going to get plenty of sunlight, around 6 to 8 hours per day. When you're ready to plant, ensure you have well-drained soil and dig a hole twice as wide and just as deep as the root system.
Place the plant in the hole and backfill. After planting, be sure to give your Passion Fruit a deep watering for about 5 minutes. If you're planting in a container, just select a container that's twice the width of your plant's shipped container and provide a structure for your vine to climb. We recommend a sturdy structure as this vine can be heavy once in bloom with fruit on it.
2. Watering: To keep your plant healthy, let the soil dry out between waterings. When it's time to water, soak the soil until water drips out of the pot. A clay pot will help keep the roots healthy. Your plant ideally needs at least 50% humidity, but it can survive with lower levels.
3. Fertilizing: To keep your Passifloras healthy and blooming, fertilize them monthly with ½ teaspoon of fertilizer per gallon of water. Use a balanced fertilizer, like a 15-15-15, or a blooming fertilizer, such as a 7-9-5. If the leaves become uniformly pale, fertilize every 2 weeks. Over-fertilization reduces flowering, so be cautious.
4. Pruning: Only prune your plant when it grows out of the desired space. Remember, flowers form on young growth, so pruning should only be done when necessary.
