Passiflora antioquiensis

I paid an extravagant sum of money for a small start of this plant in 2021, but now I am gratified that I did purchase it.  Here is the first flowering.  It took a long time to really get established with active growth.  It grows over a huge Platycerium bifurcatum in the crotch of a Metrosideros excelsa.  My only complaint is that it wants to just sprawl outwards, and less to grow vertically up the tree branch structure.

    That's a beauty! I'll bet the hummingbirds know your house.

    Will it fruit in San Francisco?

    I can see why you paid good dollars for it, a real show of a flower. I don’t hesitate in paying what the grower wants as a grower myself, I understand what’s involved in exotic rare plants. There is a saying if you see a plant you have always wanted or just want it and don’t buy it you may never see that plant again for sale. And a few coins should never stand in the way of obtaining that plant!

    We have two species that migrate seasonally and one year round resident hummingbird,  Calypte anna. I would be thrilled if fruit is produced !

    Very nice! The now defunct Annies had a hybrid of antioquiensis with perritae (Mission Dolores). I tried it twice in Fresno and it did not survive summer. Like a fool, I would probably try antioquiensis if I was presented with the opportunity lol
