[UMARKHANMARDAN]

Frankly speaking i don,t like this vine.Some years back i up rooted all Passiflora vines.

[Munir]

Me too.It looks more like a piece of artificial jewellery.

[Tahir Khan]

Umar sb, Munir sb any specific reason for uprooting the plants

[Munir]

I never planted this as I don't have a liking for its complex shape/pattern.

I never planted this as I don't have a liking for its complex shape/pattern.

Munir sahab...it is amazingly complex design, consider this as the artwork of the designer (Al musavvir).

In theology, this flower has a highly symbolic value in some faiths as it represents the crown on thorns on Jesus.

[Munir]

OK, Insha Allah I ll consider it in the impending do-over of my garden,if none else then for its frangrance.

[Hamad Ahmed Kisana]

Munir sb in fact now there are several varieties of passiflora..it is a vigorous climber and if you want to cover a wall or trellis in one year then passiflora is best.i am growing several vines but it is growing very fast and also it is evergreen so a good fence.

Do anyone knows, from where I can get passiflora incarnata plant which has yellowish one fruit.
