Waterloo Blue Passion Flower is a vigorous twining vine with shiny green lobed foliage that is semi-evergreen in warmer climates. The unusual flowers are white with a blue disk of filaments and tentacle-like projections bloom from summer into fall. Following the flowers are egg-sized deep orange fruits that last through fall. Grows best with support in full sun and well-drained soils. Needs a strong support to climb. Humidity tolerant.
