Passionflower juice is also rich in 165 mango flavors such as pineapple, banana, strawberry and malic plum, and it is a world-famous spicy fruit. So how to raise passionflower? Let's find out.

First, how to raise passionflower

Passionflower's hometown is 1500 meters above sea level in the Mexican plateau. It is not only not cold-resistant but also afraid of extreme heat. The climate there is warm and cool, and it will be dormant during a period of low temperature. Passionflower can also be called egg fruit or passion fruit, it also has the elegant name of passionate fruit, its fruit is sweet and sour, rich flavor and pleasant fragrance.

Its seed reproduction is generally limited to flower bed varieties and breeding applications. In summer, the seeds are mostly collected from those who mature after autumn because of their poor fruiting due to damp and hot. Vertical petal varieties are not easy to obtain seeds, so artificial pollination should be carried out. The sowing is generally carried out in the sowing box, about 20 C, sprouting and unearthing in 4-5 days, replanting after the true leaves grow, and flowering after 1-2 years.

Root-splitting propagation is the most commonly used method. Because passionflower can sprout only in the root neck, it must have part of the root neck when it is divided, otherwise it can not germinate new plants. In order to facilitate identification, the method of burying roots in advance is often used to accelerate budding, and then split and planted after the adventitious buds on the root neck germinate. The root-splitting method is simple and easy, the survival rate is high, the seedlings are strong, but the number of propagation plants is limited.
