The passion flower is a total fan favorite, and it’s easy to see why—those massive, vibrant blooms are absolute showstoppers! But since this beauty is a climber, it needs a little support to really reach its full potential. To get those flowers front and center, you’ll need to provide a sturdy trellis or support system.
Here are a few ways you can help your passion flower climb:
Against the House
Since passion flowers are sun-worshippers that crave warmth, a south-facing wall is the perfect spot for them. You can easily mount a classic wooden or metal trellis directly to the siding, or if you prefer a more modern look, a stainless steel cable system works wonders for giving those vines a place to grip.
Other Creative Ideas
Don’t feel limited to just the house! You can let your passion flowers wander along a garden fence to create a lush, living screen. If you have a specific spot in the yard in mind, you can set up a free-standing metal or wooden trellis anywhere that gets enough sun. And for a really magical garden vibe? Try training them over a garden arch or arbor—there’s nothing quite like walking under a canopy of those exotic blossoms!
