    About 3 weeks ago I planted some seed from a supermarket Passion fruit; the label says it Passiflora Edulis..

    Well 12 seeds went in and 12 came up almost all at the same time and here are the little beauties, just been transplanted to 3" pots :thumb:

      They are wonderful plants - I grew some late last year but didn't get them potted up until late. This year I have got them in a big pot with canes in our conservatory. They are just starting curve around and climb.
