Brazilian passionflower
Passiflora caerulea
Brazilian passionflower is a fast-growing, exotic vine celebrated for its intricate blue-and-white blooms and ornamental orange fruit. It thrives in full sun to partial shade with well-drained soil and benefits from a sturdy trellis or fence to climb. In frost-prone areas, protect the roots with mulch in winter as top growth may die back but typically regrows vigorously in spring.
