Weird and wonderful, the passion flower is a plant unlike any other. When compared to most other blooms that are common in backyards, such as roses, peonies, or hydrangeas, passion flowers seem almost alien in their appearance.
Native to tropical regions of North, Central and South America, passion flowers thrive in hot and humid, rainforest-like environments. Considered some of the best fast-growing climbing plants, there are over 600 species of passion flowers, or Passiflora, most of which are vigorous growers that produce purple, pink, blue and white blooms.
