- Pulling off one of the five 'anthers' and dusting each of the three 'stigmas' is a great way to pollinate your passion flowers.

It works!!! I bought a plant last year with fruit on it. This year I've only seen about 5 fruit globes on the plant. I pollinated 3 flowers with your method and marked an X on a nearby leaf. I've been checking regularly and today I found 3 fruit globes poking out from the bottom of the 3 flowers. I only wish I'd done this earlier! Now I can't wait for more flowers to open. Thank you much for this super easy method!!!
I use a small soft paint brush, it picks up the pollen beautifully and holds it so I can do several flowers at a time. Also makes it easy and fast to cross-pollinate.
I am in India, west side. Flowers open in the afternoons too. Its the anthers that hold the pollen for your information..thanks for a lovely video. I liked the idea of breaking an anther, so u know u have pollinated that flower
I’ve had this plant about 7 years now. I never knew how to pollinate them. You have taught me much. Thanks. I plan to get busy with the pollination process. Thanks so much. .❣️
Update? 🤷
thanks for the nice piece of information, by the way you have a beautiful tree.
I've need two genetically different plants to get any fruit. The large yellow variety needs two separate plants and I didn't realize that until years later when I had zero fruit! Great video, I'm using this technique on my vine to cross pollinate my neighbor's vine. We'll see what happens. Will post an update.
marimo chan I have 2 golden yellow passion fruit plants as well. I have been getting conflicting advice about the need for cross pollination for the yellow passion fruit from different plants. Could you please elaborate on what needs to be done?
Glad I found this video , just bought a passion vine with a lot of flowers now I know what I have to do to get some fruit , will do that Today and will be back with update
WOW. I love it. I live in AZ too. I’m going to try to get passion fruit like that. Thanks for the video
Thx, growing passionfruit for a few years now here in Belgium.. From now on al my flowers will make fruit :-)
Groene Vinger I miss Belgium! We lived so close and visited often.
@@melissabowra834 Thank you, but i think there are nicer countries to live in..
without manual pollination?
@@sireeshareddy7817 no i have to pollinate them by hand.. this year i had 55 nice purple very very tasty passion fruits!
I'm glad I found this video, I did planted a passion fruit vine like 290 days ago and for some reason I don't have too many bees in my house so pollination doesn't happens and some of the flowers were falling. I started using this method and now 90% of the flowers don't fall. Plus since I remove one or two of the pollination little canoes if I check the plant later on to see if another flower open I can tell if I pollinated the flower already. Already ate 2 of the fruits and they are goooooood. Thanks for the tip.
do these vines attract the snakes I heard they like to stay with the vines can u help,I love these fruit but I don't like the s
Hi LT, so far no snakes in my vine and we do have plenty of those down here in S.Fla.
Easy with your pretty plants brother, cool stuff though, thanks! I found this flower growing while tripping on acid, I've never seen anything like it before. Mind blown for sure
You do know that you should prune these bushes back every year, don't you? The reason is because passionate fruit love to grow and they will grow over top of last years growth but the problem with this is that it makes finding the fruit very difficult. So by cutting your vines back to around 2 feet every year and letting them grow, you will actually get more fruit, and it's easier for the bees to get to the flowers.
GOOD AND PAST WORKING FLOWERS CONGRATULATIONS 👍👌💐
Great tips! Thanks! Can you please handle the passionfruit plant gentler?
They are very tough, in fact hard to get rid of when they start overgrowing everything, but the fruit is so good! I like to juice them to separate from the seeds. freeze it in ice cube trays, and drop one in my tea
My passion fruit is growing very well over the years but it hardly ever gives me fruits so yesterday I trimmed it down to just the main stem. Hopefully next season I will have some fruits otherwise I’m digging it up.
Passion fruit plant requires a lot of sunshine and water. Best manure is chicken poo.
Allow the insects, birds, bees visiting the plants/ flowers. This will enhance pollination and increase fruit bearing . Pl try this. Good luck.
Pretty cool! Can't believe how much fruit you have...maybe I should start looking up some recipes that use passion fruit!
Nice Video.. Love your passion fruit wine.. God bless you and your plants.. is it a muat to polinate?? What are the furtilizers do you put
OMG! 😂 Dying laughing your Bean Stalk growing so much, so fast! Lord what have I done planting this sucker running up my pergola (car cover)!
thanks for this helpful video I have a passion fruit that attract bumblebees like you wouldn't believe but for some reason I'm not getting any fruit I'm going to have to try this method
Have 4 passion fruit vines of different variety. One is a year old, the rest 4 months old. Been wondering why the older one has just 5 fruits and yet had over 30 flowers this summer. There were bees and bumble bees, but they obviously did a bad job. Thanks, now on I will hand pollinate them this way.
Thanks for the great video on this. I have two vines I purchased that get flowers and I hand pollinated them today for the first time. Do I have to hand pollinate all of them? Or will they pollinate themselves?
Mine has really struggled to get going. It’s growing slowly ATM. I got it a few months ago from a Friend in San Diego CA. Was sent USPS and took about 4 days to deliver. Just the vines. I cut them to where there were 2-3 sections and stuck them in the dirt. I wish I would have done it differently.
love the background noise XD
Thanks Scott for this very beneficial education!
Big ole nuts on that plant Sir. . That flower is a time machine lookin ass.
Thanks for the pollination technic.
thankyou for this ,I just tried manual pollinating ,will see
From Nepal
Is it important to pollinate manually?? Germinated seeds and later planted 2 vines! 1 got only 1 flower and it fell off and it's still growing!
The other vine got bigger and flowered! It self pollinated and I got almost 30 fruits this year! But it flowered almost 200!! Rest of them fell off! Fruits are still green! And vines are still growing!
Few questions-
Which month is good to plant seeds?
Is passion fruit vine evergreen and keeps growing?
Is it important to pollinate manually?
Thanks you
wonderful passion fruit.Thanks for your informations
Ty for this!
My friend, You can eat Passion Leaves too.
do you not have bees around your area? I never had to hand pollinate my vine and I have hundreds of fruit
Im having a dying flowers without fruits then i stumble here and knows that i can pollinate it myself.
The only bad thing was just it grew a bit higher than expected now im suffering with ladder just to pollinate the top flowers
That is looking really healthy.
I don’t know why grocers charge so much for passion fruit.It is one of the biggest producers and it grows like a weed.
Its huge! in sweden we only get that big ones in green houses =)
Did you hand pollinate all of them ?? There’s alot there! But I’ll have to do this since no bees about.
Tried this with my lemon tree only ended up with about 4 lemons it’s looking like. And a pomegranate tree looks like I wasn’t successful there. But this is a different method. I used a small paintbrush. Will try this. Thx
Great and quick video here. Nice camcorder you're wearing to make this video. Great Green 🌱
How long does the flower last. How can u tell white flower you already pollinated? I pollinated mine next day it closed so I don’t know which one is start to open or closed
I read they don’t fruit till about 16 months old mines just started fruiting like yours same age
I pollinized about 200 flowers,but for some reason they are drying and falling out Why is That? any Idea? I live in Florida should I use some type of fertilizer something natural. what say you?
Do you know what type of passion vine you have? Some types are not self-fertile, and some do not produce fruit at all.
I have Frederick Passion fruit it flowers i pollinate the flowers and then they die what should i do
You may need two different plants (genetically different). I know I did. I have the yellow passion fruit variety and I've started to cross pollinate two different vines and now I finally have fruit. Before I did that, all my flowers would die and fall off too because they are self-sterile, unless you have an ornamental passion fruit variety, which is grown for the flowers only.
What happens if the flowers are not pollinated since you already have fruit on that vine I would assume that the fruit won't get ripe maybe?
Great. is this plant get like some kind of mosquito that kill the plant?
After doing this to the flowers
How long the fruits can show?
My passion fruit tree gives flowers actually but no fruits unfortunately. What's the reason? No polonisation?
Sir, do to pollinate one flower at the time? Please let me know, my passion fruit vine has a lot of flower but never bear fruit, I thought it will pollinate it self.
that's what I thought until I found out that if you don't have enough bees in your area they do not sell polinate,Bees do. So go ahead and pollinate by hand, I use three separate polen leave for each stigma,he uses one I guess that is another way,bc he is yielding fruit
my plant grew for three years,Had plenty flowers but I too did not know one can pollinate by hand I knew with my pumpkins though,but I'm fairly new at gardening but you learn as you go!
I just planted two vines that i bought at home depot, I`m also in arizona.
your vines are really big and healthy .
How you and what you feed the vines ??
Sorry but I didn't catch if you said it gets morning sun, evening, full? And any particular soil requirements?
Would you say that your plant is in partial shade? How many hours of sunlight does it get ( I know it spreads so some parts probably get more sun etc).
Did u hand pollinate all those flowers bearing fruits???
Omg! U r handling the plant like Matthew Mc ! Sounding like him too..! Do u have a horse?
why don't you temp a group of bees to let them to pollinate?
it's probably fruiting season for it now. Could you show what the flower looks like after pollination: 1 day, 2 days... up to a week or so?
Sir this is Cris i'm new farmer here in the philippines, can you help me? The flowers kept on dropping on the ground, can you give me some tips? And what fertilizer do i need to use? Thank you in advance for your reply.
Bees don't pollinate for you?
Great video!
oh god you are twisting the flower too much they will break.
Is this Passiflora incarnata?
i got 2 vines of passion fruits here in Kathmandu, Nepal. In 1 vine i am yet to get fruits. i had only 1 flower in April and it fell off and the vine is just growing and its July and i am waiting the flowers to blossom. On the other hand the other vine started to flower at the end of the March and gave around 40 fruits and many flowers didn't self pollinated and fell off and those which pollinated self almost all the fruits are harvested by July and it started to flower again in july. Does it give fruit twice a year? many small flowers are yellow in color and i think they will not flower. may be because of lack of fertilizer. need help
You are not gentle with the plant, thats a very delicate flower! Beautiful plants, good job growing it up but man be more gentle!
Oh please.. calm down.. this thing took off in just a year and is growing like crazy. Plus you can kind of tell he is shocked how much it's grown and is sorta over it but impressed. I think. AND these suckers are sturdy not needy!
This plant/vine is super hardy! I have needed to get quite aggressive on mine at times. It grows very fast and will survive far more than the man-handling demonstrated here!
Wow
Mine never completely turns purple
What happens if you don’t hand pollinate please.?
I have a question regarding caterpillars. Do your Vines get the gulf fertility caterpillar? Mine just got some that I noticed today. Do you leave them or do you take them off your Vine?
Do you have to hand pollinate to get 1 piece of fruit?
Do you have to hand pollinate?
Why would you want to help pollinate these flowers? I also notice that your leaves are more broader than mine
I did That to , but No fruit
Do you have to do this to every single flower?
I do this and still no fruit.
This is all great and awesome, but looks like too much effort for someone who's got a full time job, I will rather let bees do all the work.
Its a self pollinating plant as well so it really should be able to do this on its own.
Thank you sir for the video how do I get this plant.
The flower opens only for 1 day?
My passion fruit flower only bloom one day. The next day, the flower close up
Ok thank you for the information but it did not work for me. My plant is healthy and well watered/fertilized. Is there anything else you might think we need to do. By the way my plant is less then 18 months old. This thing took off like a rocket, lol. Go Sun Devils!
Hi, interesting video. In Tempe, AZ, do you plant them in the shade, or full sun? Don't they grill during the summer if they are full sun? What do you recommend the watering schedule to be if you are using an irrigation system?
I'm in Phoenix and mine is thriving in full (blazing) sun on the south side of the house. It's there to shade the house from the sun. I put up a mason bee hotel and it's really improved the fruiting of the vine. It was a pain to try to hand pollinate all the time.
Thanks a lot! How often do you irrigate them? I have a drip line and I irrigate everyday twice a day during 10min. It is doing Ok, it even did a flower one month after I planted it. It is on the West side of the house (afternoon sun mostly but the toughest heat).
I have it planted by a spigot that has a slow leak, so... I'm making the best of the situation until I decide to get it fixed. The vine has taken over the southeast corner of my house as planned and is shading my guest bedroom nicely.
Nice! Do you get a lot of flower? What type of mason bee house have you used? Aren't you bothered with the bees?
Tons of flowers... tapering off now though. Mason bees aren't anything like honeybees. Very docile and solitary. I have a home-made house I copied from some houses I saw on Brushy Mountain and Crown Bees videos.
هل يمكن أن يقوم النحل بهذه المهمة أم لايكفى ؟
Wow...thanks for the info.
When you went from no fruit to an abundance of fruit, is that when you started manually pollination? You human bee you!
That only work with that kind of pasiflora edulis
With passiflora edulis flavicarpa is cross pollinated and verh difficult
how often should you pollinate them?
Thank u for sharing
man, he is so rough with that plant. 🥴
Yes I am scared looking at how he's handling the plant. Soft painting brush is the best way.
She obviously likes it.
looks like you pollinate one flower from another flower's pollen?
oops, finally saw you pollinated from the same flower.
How big was it when you planted it? What direction does it face? I'm looking to get one, in Surprise AZ
I thought they're self pollinated ?
Why do you hand pollinate for?
I am growing a passion fruit tree on my roof. It has at least thousand fruits.
pls guide .My plant is 2 years old now.It flowers but no fruits are forming .Flowers just fall off
NEVER TOO MUCH .. I remove the pulp and put it in a ziplock and freeze it
I pulled one anther for each stigma is that too much pollination?
all the fruits on the vines here have been hand pollinated?
Very interesting
Is it just one plant or did you plant more?
That's amazing.. Nice work. How about the AZ winter? Did you have any problems or did it do fine?
***** Thank You. It got hit pretty hard by that freeze we had in December. A lot of the exposed leaves got burned. But the damage was only superficial. All of the flowering takes place on new growth, so a little winter freeze damage is long gone by spring time flowering.
so much my gold
hey i leave in india i bought this plant it is very small now, can u send me tips to increase flowering faster ,climber is very weak😑 .
U have to focus on the climbing part and u have to cut all the random part down there to make the cilmber part feed more
This flowers & plant is available in my house
I got a bunch of bees all over my passion fruit tree.
Can we plant it in a big pot as i don't have place on ground?
Yes, you can
Hi need to perforate the pot? Thank you for your advice.
what do you use for the cage where it climbs on to?
Can the plan survive in Va?or just for the south?
