Question
Cora –
I live in zone 4 so I know I couldn’t plant this directly outdoors, but would it still thrive in a well lit room with larger containers and something it could weave through? I use this as a tincture and would love to include it in my homegrowns if possible. Thanks!

Hi Cora,
Since passionflower really needs that full sun and dryish soil, it might work better to plant it to a large pot and keep outdoors, then move indoors for winter dormancy. the plant would like that, i think, because it really does have a strong dormancy and probably wouldn’t suffer indoors over the winter. richo

If passionflower grows too early in the season and then freezes, is it a goner? Some living plants were shipped to a nursery I work at, growing in early March…and they have not recovered from frost. My manager claims they will come back but I doubt it, I feel their strong dormancy is to prevent any contact with freezes. Your opinion?

Hi there, simply dig one up and see if its sprouted or if its decomposed. Either that, or wait until July–it will be aerial by then.
