Description
Passiflora Purple Rain is a unique looking Passion Flower with colourful flowers in Summer. Dark green leaves surround a gorgeous display of purple flowering, which is accompanied by hints of white, a red centre circle and topped off with a yellow-green, propeller-shaped feature. They will bloom between July and September, with the semi-evergreen plant also producing orange-yellow fruit between September and October. Whilst the fruit isn't particularly palatable, it gives this variety much-welcomed interest in the latter period of the year. Lavender Lady is a climber, making it an ideal choice for covering up any plain or unsightly walls in and around your garden. It can also be used as a great form of groundcover, as well as creating a fantastic display in borders, pots and containers. Place it in a sunny or partially shaded area of the garden, in a moist, well-drained soil. You will only need to water it when the soil is dry to touch.
