Passiflora Amethyst (syn. Lavender Lady)

Description

Passiflora Amethyst (also known as Lavender Lady) has rich violet purple ‘petals’ that become more reflexed as the flower ages, surround a showy network of stamens and filaments, which gives the flower an exotic air. Later, orange fruits appear which are said to be edible (but are generally unpalatable), however they do add further interest well into the autumn. It’s a very pretty, semi-evergreen climber for a warm and sheltered wall.
