Finding my passion

I belong to a little garden trade/sell group on Facebook. It's where I sold my little faerie gardens, and while I haven't bought anything from it, I'm always keeping an eye out to see what others are offering up (I'm kicking myself for not grabbing some yellow irises this summer...)

Well the other day, one of the members offered up something I just couldn't resist
A piece of her Passionflower plant. Her's had gone right crazy so she split it up and potted several pieces, offering them for sale.
She used an old piece of the woody vine as a trellis for the new plant, and it's just brilliant.

I've got to get a proper pot to put it in. Like my Hibiscus, this one will stay indoors for the winter and live outside in the summer.

I'm not sure how long it will take to flower, but as you can see, there's lots of new growth. And when it does bloom....
Wowza!!!

I've always wanted one of those and never thought of having an indoor one! My hibiscus takes a summer vacation, too. It's just recently returned......
