I have just had the experience of losing two passifloras. One, a Coral
Seas, was about 12 years old, and had hundreds of feet of vine -died
completely in about 4 days. It's roots were totally intertwined with 2
other passifloras (which are still quite healthy), so could not examine
them. The other was a recent acquisition, and growing happily in a 5 gal
pot, awaiting being put into the ground. Also suddenly died in several
days time. BOth looked like they had been sprayed with Round up - they
weren't - only died much faster. A mystery.
