Passion Flower Passion

This is the first year I've cultivated a passion flower vine. The surreal beauty of this bloom is hard to capture, but here goes.

This is a large, multilayered flower and now the thing is bearing fruit..not sure yet if its edible, I may give it to the potato to sample.

    Fascinating flower. I like the whole flower best; the frame is very effective.

    I love passion flowers, there were some growing wild down the road from me, I tried to grow my own, but I didn't succeed. I think what you think is fruit is the seed pod, not sure. The potato will find out. Awesome shot! :o)

    Beautiful job, Kits! I really like Hanging and Side, but I have to say Whole is a keeper. Had one of these in my backyard years ago and I was fancinated with the blooms...Yea give to the potato...maybe it won't be edible...heheh!

    - come over for lunch
