Notes
'Fata Confetto' passion flower (Passiflora 'Fata Confetto') is a vine for food gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun. The purple and white flowers have twisted edges and open from early summer to late summer, then again in early autumn. It can set fruit with a flavor many people enjoy, especially if another passionflower grows nearby for cross pollination. Mulch the base deeply in winter.
Pairs well with Jasmine, Gypsy rose, and Tuberose.
