Arrived healthy
The plant arrived on time in a flat box. When I opened it I was pleasently surprised to see I was given an extra plant. Both were in excellent condition and I immediately planted them in a pot. It’s up to me now to keep them alive. Looking forward to getting these climbing and producing fruit.

Sturdy with pretty, shiny leaves - but where to put it?
The plant was packaged very well but it was teeny tiny with only 2 leaves on it. Much smaller than I expected for the price but within the 3 - 8" description. I put it in a fairly large pot outdoors (Zone 9a) in a sunny spot and it is growing nicely. While searching for a permanent location, I watched videos on YT which said not to plant it in the ground because it's fast-growing and the roots are invasive - so much so that it might run invisibly into the neighbor's yard. Since that had been my intention and I had already prepped a fence for it to run on, I've had to re-group. I have a left-over tall black plastic pot about 24" in diameter and it already has holes near the bottom but not on the bottom to let the water out but not the roots. (Well, if the roots grow out of the sides, I can see them and cut them before they invade the neighbors yard.) I will have to buy posts to stick in the ground and chicken wire to wrap around the pot and poles to make a tall vertical cylindrical fence instead of a traditional close to the ground long fence. More money. But so far, it's alive and thriving, spread out on the lawn about 18-20 inches long after 2 months or so. I water it every day. So far no flowers but I'm keeping hope alive.

Arrived well- No paperwork accompanied the plant
The passion vine order arrived today. It appears to be healthy and is a larger size, which is nice. I had ordered from this company once before, 2 years ago. The purple passion that arrived two years ago was smaller, but came with a paper listing the full name, genus and species. And also came with instructions of what to do; cover it from direct sun for two weeks etc. I live in Arizona, so not covering this little thing from the sun during the initial plantation could be matter of life and death for this tiny plant. I would have also like to be assured by some sort of documentation that this is the fruiting purple passion vine, which was not also mentioned, since there was no paper accompanying the plant in the packaging.I am planting this in good faith, since the last plant I purchased from this company turned out great, and gave delicious fruit and beautiful flowers but I would be upset if after nursing this for months, it either turns out to be a different species of passion vine or just ornamental.

Not growing
The plant is the same size as when I received it. It’s not growing at all. This is supposed to be a very easy plant to grow. I followed all of the directions. I’m so frustrated.

Too tiny and not very strong
It has roots, but I ‘m not sure if it will survive. I heard that the passion fruit is very easy to survive from cuttings. $20 is way tooooo expensive for a tiny sapling.

This Nursery is the Best! Vine Arrived 6” and is Now 6’
Best purchase I’ve made on Amazon for a long time. The vine arrived well-protected in a box. Be sure to follow the instructions slip that comes in your box — we did and it survived the transplant process just fine. My sister and I are absolutely floored by how fast this vine is growing. I would not consider myself a gardener by any stretch of the word. When I bought this a few months ago, it was about 6” tall. Now it is 6’ tall and I have to stand on a stool to wrap the tendrils around the bamboo sticks we bought. Probably a lattice would have been better if we had the room. I read online we will need to hand-pollinate it, hopefully it will bear fruit. Also we bought a little humidity/temperature monitor and try to keep it around 70 and 70 for both. We live in Seattle so this will be an indoor plant for our climate (the winters are too cold). So beautiful. I’m excited to see how it continues to grow! This nursery is the best! Totally trustworthy and high quality.
