Gardeners grow Passion Flower from seed, but the flower seed can be slow to germinate. It actually has a chemical in the seed to keep germination slow, approximately 28 - 90 days.

1. It is recommended to soak the flower seed 24 hours before planting
2. Sow the seeds 1/4 inch deep
3. Good compost or potting soil, well draining soil (part soil and part gravel)
4. Keep soil damp until germination
5. Mulch deep around plant before winter


Passion Flower plants need to be well watered throughout the summer months, watering infrequently but deeply to encourage deep root growth.

Passion Flower is an evergreen in tropical or semi-tropical regions, but as the winters become cooler it will drop its leaves. You do need to prune new growth occasionally to promote flowering.
