    Hi guys, is this a Passiflora Caerulea? I bought one and thought it had died. I put the remains in this tub to see what happens and now this is growing? Not sure what it is. Any help would be most welcome as always. Dave

    Hi Dave

    I would say no ... here are the leaves of a Passiflora caerulea ...

    Sorry, not sure what your leaves are.

    :scratch: Hi Dave, I agree Victoria, not a Passiflora & I like Victoria am not sure what you have got..
    :scratch: Couldn't be a Dahlia I suppose of some kind that got forgotten from last year & has managed to overwinter by any chance..?? :scratch:

    I thought it looked vaguely like a hardy aster of some kind, but definitely not a passion flower.
