Pineland Passion Flower
Passiflora pallens

A sprawling vine with a sort of weedy growth habit, this extremely rare Passiflora is rarely seen in cultivation. Pretty white flowers are followed by fruits of unknown edibility.

Description: Fast-growing vine to 20-30ft. Grows well with support, but this species can also crawl along the ground. Fruits are occasionally set without cross-pollination, but for fruit production, multiple clones are best. Related to P. gibertii and P. sprucei.

Hardiness: Hardy to about 30F

Growing Environment: Grow in full sun or filtered sun. Water regularly. Not too picky about soil, so long as it is well-drained.

Propagation: By cuttings, by seeds.

Uses: Rare in cultivation, but grown as an ornamental.

Native Range: Native to southern Florida.
