The buds on our Passion Flower are dropping off instead of flowering. Any ideas why?

Hello Brynh
Did you give it a good feed earlier in the spring because this sounds like a deficiency of some kind.
Have a look at my pictures
Hope this helps

Thanks for response. Its a new plant growing vigorously. Bought in spring. Its in a container and I'm feeding weekly with tomato feed.

Containers are ok for marketing the products but you really should find a place and give it the freedom it requires when i purchased mine five years ago they were in a little basket and the runners were wrapped around its handle..................
i soon removed the packing and the plastic sleeve around its roots and well the rest is history...
Set it free is my advice
