    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Hardly is there a flower that evokes a sense of the tropical more than the passion flowers. P. caerulea 'Alba' is the pure white form of the is hardy blue passion flower. Bury the stem 6 inches deep to increase hardiness. Plant in well-drained soil that is not too moist or too rich to promote more flowers and less greenery. Edible, but not the most tasty, yellow fruit are sometimes produced.
