Passiflora seemannii

Product number: 645765
Origin: South America
Latin: Passiflora seemannii

A beautiful species with lilac-blue calyx flowers and a halo. It's truly a heat-loving plant, even in winter. Place the plants in a large pot with plenty of nutrients. After several years of strong growth, the plant will start to flower.

Sowing passion flowers is an exciting adventure! Regular supply of fresh seeds is important, otherwise germination takes a very long time or fails. Through cooperation with the National Passiflora Collection, we are assured of a successful and special assortment. The flowering period is usually in summer, from May-November. In the plant's cycle, a sowing time of February-May is recommended, but with extra care, year-round sowing is possible. First soak the seeds for 1 day in milk, then sow them in a light mixture of 3/4 sieved peat moss and 1/4 washed sand, under cover of a lid or foil. Germination temperature 25-30°C, ventilate when the first set of leaves has formed. Most species produce fruit through cross-pollination; a few self-pollinators are mentioned separately. Some species are resistant to our winters outdoors, others should be treated as container plants.
