Product description
Passiflora Avalanche is a semi-evergreen, perennial plant with a vigorous climbing habit. Showy flowers grow on self-clinging stems which grow and climb quickly up walls and fences. Flowers have creamy white petals, with a ring of white filaments in the centre. These large flowers have a tropical appearance, adding an exotic touch to any garden.
Plant this Passiflora in moist, well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. This plant is relatively hardy, but will need some protection from winter frosts. This Passion Flower is an excellent conservatory plant, but it would look equally as stunning on bare walls, fences or trellises, adding a tropical touch to the garden.
Please Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may, therefore, differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. This plant will be supplied in a growers pot.
Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Instructions
Top Tip
Passiflora vines benefit from regular pruning to control growth and promote stronger blooming.
How to Water
Water Passiflora regularly, ensuring the soil is kept moist but not soggy. Avoid overwatering, as this can cause root rot. Water more frequently during hot weather, but let the soil dry slightly between waterings.
How to Plant
Plant Passiflora in well-draining soil with plenty of sunlight. Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball and place the plant at soil level. Space plants 90-120cm apart to allow for growth, and provide a trellis or support for the vines to climb.
