Passiflora caerulea (szenvedélyvirág) - ív

Passiflora caerulea is an exotic climbing plant, native to South America, also known as the passion flower.

Location and light: The Passion Flower prefers a sunny spot but can also adapt to partial shade (though flowering may not be as abundant). It is ideal for gardens, terraces, or sunny balconies.

Temperature: Passiflora caerulea is a perennial plant in warm regions, but in areas with harsh winters it will need protection or to be brought indoors. It withstands temperatures down to -5°C, but grows best at temperatures between 20°C and 30°C.

Watering: The Passion Flower should be watered regularly, but without letting water stagnate. In the warm season, it may require daily watering. During winter, reduce watering, allowing the soil to dry partially between waterings.

Soil: The Passion Flower prefers well-drained soil rich in organic matter. You can use a peat mixture improved with sand (or pumice, perlite, vermiculite, etc.) to ensure good drainage.

Fertilizing: For abundant flowering, it is recommended to apply a fertilizer rich in potassium and phosphorus once a month during the growing period (spring-summer).

Passiflora caerulea, known as the blue Passion Flower, produces fruit, but these are not preferred for human consumption, being quite sour and with little pulp inside. Although the fruits are not poisonous, they are often left on the plant more for their decorative value than for eating.
