Weekly Photo Challenge: Saturated (2nd Submission)

My newest passionflower, “Lady Margaret,” is in the midst of an unbelievable first bloom cycle of saturated red and green. 🙂

Isn’t this the most gorgeous, detailed species? To learn more, I recommend browsing the VERY comprehensive Passiflora Online.

The amount of bloggers who participated in this week’s challenge was insane!!! To see their creative interpretations, check out the Zemanta provided links below!

Until next time……

This is a beautiful flower! i love its color. For some reason I thought all passionflowers were blue/purple. Yours is a delightful change.

Hi Deb!
Thank you so much for coming by and leaving a comment. 🙂
I had NO idea there were so many passiflora varieties until I started doing research on my first pass-along cutting! there’s a pretty cool greenish, small one, too!

I need to get that passion flower – I don’t think I’ve ever seen one that colour before and I just know it would look great in my garden too!

One of the best websites for passion flower info is based in England. Browse through their info and you’ll see sooooooo many you’ll want to grow! As an aside, I received a pass-along passiflora cutting early this summer, but it hasn’t bloomed yet. All my friend could tell me about it was “big red flower” which means it’s probably NOT a Lady Margaret. Can’t wait to figure out its identity! 🙂

What a beautiful flower… don’t think I’ve seen one before, or not in that form in any case…

I really love this plant…i’ve currently got 4 different varieties and trying to decide which to add next!

We saw some of these last weekend in the Smithsonian garden in DC. 🙂 As well as some amazing vine next to them with huge hanging flowers. Seriously, they must have been a foot or more in length!
