Hi Everyone!
Can anyone tell me why all the buds on my passion flower are falling?
I have it in a spot where it gets bright light & I'm not over/under watering it.
???

Hi Isabella,

Is it possible that what is falling is the fruit and not the buds? Maybe it's too warm where you have it located? Take a look here.

Blue passionflower does better overwintered in a cool greenhouse where it can go semi-dormant as opposed to in a hothouse where it will be tempted to put too much energy into weak off-season growth. In either case, it is important to keep the soil on the dry side in the winter.

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.
