Any one knows what is the name of this plant and where I can get seeds or small plant of that? I love the flowers very much. Many thanks. Please reply or PM me.

This is passion flower (Passiflora). We used to have a vine growing along the fence of the Tai Peng community garden, but I think it's all gone now. You could try the flower market in Prince Edward

Reply from our Gardening forum moderator Jane (who forgot how to log in and post in her own forum ;-)

"This flower is a Passiflora although I am not sure exactly which one
-- they are all beautiful and most bear fruit. It will grow easily although slowly from seed -- save a few any time you have a fresh passion fruit. Most mature passion vines will produce fruit, they prefer to be in the ground, but will do OK in a pot. If you are impatient, you can probably find one in Flower Market Road once the weather warms up."

Thanks Jane for your information. That means, I can either use seeds from the passion fruit or buy a mature plant from the flower market? I saw before that the fruit is green in colour. Do you mean that I can just get the seeds from the fruit and grow it? What is the best time and weather to grow? How to take care? Thanks again in advance.
