This is the first flower of this beautiful white Passionflower which I planted in early spring. It took a while to grow as the snails loved every new shoot it sent out and it wasn't very strong for a while.

Ah...snails...that explains why Rachel’s never did well. I couldn’t understand it, but that says it all! Her garden here was a snail haven!

Thanks Hywel and Dawn, I'm so pleased that it finally made it, next year it should be full of flowers, fingers crossed....:))
They are so annoying Karen, and mine live on the walls, I have to look and pick them off, they never actually slide to the ground to eat the pellets!

Thanks Shirley, I love the White 'ruff' it has. Such an unusual flower....

It certainly is ... my 'common' Passion flower has hardly flowered this year ... perhaps the high temps in the heatwave had something to do with that.

I have White lightening but I think this is even lovelier Janey ...

A really beautiful Passion Flower. Snails...we have dozens, and slugs. I try not to put slug pellets down as we have so much wildlife around here, so I hand pick and also use beer traps....beer in a sunken jam jar...they love it.

Thanks Amy and Linda... I tried the beer traps Linda years ago, I never seemed to catch many snails, I wonder if it was the Budweiser? Lol!
