    Hi
    I was wondering if anyone could advise as too why my passiflora could be wilting? I have 2 in seperate planters they have blooming and growing crazy for months then they started to grow fruit after a week or two off the fruit they started to wilt. I have a rose in one of the planters and that seems to be doing OK I've checking for vine weevil and there is none it's not over or under watered I just don't know what it could be? Or if I can save them any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Usually pretty tough plants regarding heat.
    Maybe you could cut the fruit off, if you dont want it, you will get more flowers that way.

    I know you say you are watering well, but its amazing how much water container plants need at this time of the year.

      Mine has snuffed it this year - border planted, up against a fence, and has been for a couple of years. Something has got it, but goodness knows what. Oddly, a couple of my big lavatera bushes have also bitten the dust this year too.
