PASSIFLORA CULTIVAR

I bought quite a number of plants recently but have yet to post about them in my blog. This would be the first!

This is a really showy Passiflora that I like. If you are a frequent goer to our local cinemas, you will find one cinema operator has a series of plant related graphics to showcase their sound system. And I love it very much. Amongst the plants shown, the Passiflora stood out. I could see the interesting stamens and anthers bouncing up and down and I thought that was original and invigorating.

Too bad the flowers are short-lived. But maybe because they are short-lived, that's why we appreciate them more.
