Pinkish purple petals and sepals are topped by a corona of purple filaments that deepen to eggplant at its heart on 3-4" wide flowers. Aragorn Passionflower is a vigorous but containable vine that flowers profusely throughout the warmer months.

The flowers attract a variety of pollinators, especially bees. A garden perennial but suitable for container culture.
