    I moved house last May and also moved quite a few plants in a hurry. All where planted in two beds and did okay last year, despite the lack of summer we had.

    I want to move a Passion flower plant to a more suitable position this week. Is it the right time of year to be doing this and should I cut it back at the same time?

    Many thanks!

    It should be fine to move it now as long as you dig up lots of root growth too. They are pretty tough plants.
    As they are starting into new growth now I would cut it back a bit before moving it.
    Probably be a good idea to give it a good feed once it is moved to encourage root growth.
    Hope this helps

    Wilroda is quite right. Good time to move one. I wanted to get some climbers in my own picnic area so moved one from another area. No probs. Go for it.
