In zones 8-10 Passion Flowers are perennials, but in 7 and below you can grow them as annuals if you start them early in pots and transplant after your last freeze. It's best to give them their own trellis to climb as once they start they are very vigorous climbers.

Passion Flower seeds are very tough and they they need to soaked for 24 hours prior to sowing. After soaking sow 1/4" deep and keep warm as they require a soil temp of 75 degrees to germinate. Here in zone 7 spring sown Passion Flowers germinate and start to grow in mid summer. They can take a long time to germinate so don't give up on them.

If starting early in pots in winter we suggest using a heat germination mat on top or you bedding material until your seeds germinate, and then place close to your lighting. Once your vines have 4-5 sets of leaves, and your threat of frost has passed, you can put them out into your garden. Like Hydrangeas a slightly higher Ph of around 7 will bring out the blue color. Spent flowers will create passion flower fruit pods about the size of a lemon which are edible.
