Passiflora edulis Red Flamenco

The 'Red Flamenco' is a hybrid Passiflora edulis cultivar known for its prolific yield of sweet, purplish-red fruit. It is a vigorous, evergreen climber that can also tolerate brief frosts.

• Plant: A fast-growing, evergreen climbing vine that can reach heights of 2 to 5 meters. It grows well on trellises, fences, arches, or obelisks, using its tendrils to cling to surfaces.
• Flowers: The blossoms of the Red Flamenco are similar to other passionflowers, with a striking appearance of white, purple, and green. They bloom from early summer until autumn.
• Fruit: The plant produces a high yield of large, high-quality fruit. The fruit has a purplish-red skin and is full of sweet, tangy pulp and juice.
• Flavor: The flavor of the fruit is intense and delicious, making it a favorite among fruit enthusiasts

• Climate: The Red Flamenco is best suited to subtropical and tropical climates but can tolerate cooler conditions and brief, moderate frosts. It is important to protect the plant from hard frosts.
• Position: For the best results, plant in a sunny, sheltered spot, preferably against a south- or west-facing wall.
• Soil: Use a moderately fertile, moist, and well-drained soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH. For heavy soils, improve drainage by mixing in horticultural grit.
• Planting: Plant in the spring after the last frost. Provide a sturdy support structure like a trellis or wire for the vine to climb.
• Watering: Water freely and regularly during the growing season, especially during dry spells. Reduce watering in the winter. Container-grown plants will need more frequent watering.
