Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Passiflora Kew Gardens is usually identified as Passiflora x kewensis referring to an old hybrid that is most likely not the current plant found in commerce. As a result we are following the new, accepted name that still honors the world class botanical garden in Great Britain. The vine itself is quite handsome with glossy, leathery foliage that withstands abuse. It is topped by a profusion of pastel pink flowers with white filaments. Hybrid passion Flower Vine.
